Note:  The claim in Burke's Extinct Peerage that the above couple had a
daughter "Isolda" who married 1st Walter Balem and secondly Hugh (Lord Audley
is not supported by data in "The Complete Peerage", G.E.C., v. 1, wherein it
states Hugh Audley married Isolt daughter of Edmund de Mortimer and that this
Isolt was a mother of a son Hugh Audley who was born in 1289.  This being the
case, it would appear "Isolda" or "Isolt" is a daughter in a generation later
than the above children.  It has also been claimed by others doing temple work that the above couple had sons Ralph, Edmund, William and Geoffrey, but the sources quoted by those making the claim do not support it, nor do any of the above sources.

The children of Ralph de Mortimer, Lord of Wigmore, and Gwladys "ddu" verch
Llewelyn "Fawr" were sealed to Reginald de Braose, first husband, and to their
mother on 14 Sep 1959 SL.  Mother was sealed to first husband 23 Dec 1914.
