Summary

Description
English: Arms of Courtenay impaling Royal arms of England, sculpted on monument with female effigy in Colyton Church, Devon, said to be of Effigy identified by tradition as "little choke-a-bone", Margaret Courtenay (d.1512), an infant daughter of William Courtenay, 1st Earl of Devon (1475-1511) by his wife Princess Catherine of York (d.1527), the sixth daughter of King Edward IV (1461-1483) by Elizabeth Woodville. Otherwise identified as the wife of Thomas Courtenay, 5th/13th Earl of Devon (1414–1458), namely Lady Margaret Beaufort (c. 1409–1449), daughter of John Beaufort, 1st Marquess of Somerset, 1st Marquess of Dorset (1373-1410), KG, (later only 1st Earl of Somerset), (the first of the four illegitimate children of John of Gaunt, 1st Duke of Lancaster (4th son of King Edward III). The identification depends on whether these royal arms may be said to be shown within a bordure compony argent and azure, which are the arms of Beaufort. Without such bordure they are the royal arms of England.
