     She Having checked several printed sources and the general internet forinformation on the mother of Philippa and Catherine de Roet and/or thewife of Payne de Roet, I have found nothing on her identity. The onlysources for Catherine of Hainault being that person are several WorldConnect data bases-and they do not indicate a source. That does not meanthat they are wrong.

One point in favor of a connection between the Roet's Catherine ofHainault (sister of Edward III's consort Queen Philippa) is that thePayne, Philippa, and Catherine Roet were at one time or another in QueenPhilippa's household.

Created earl of Cambridge in 1362 and duke of York in 1385, Edmund wasthe least able of Edward III's sons, and in the political strife ofRichard II's reign he played an ineffective part. Between 1359 and 1378he served without distinction in several campaigns in France, Spain, andBrittany, and his one independent command, the Lisbon expedition of1381-82 to aid King Ferdinand of Portugal against Castile, was a failure.York was appointed keeper of the realm during Richard II's absence inIreland in 1394-95, and again on the King's departure for his secondIrish expedition in May 1399. When Henry of Lancaster (afterward KingHenry IV) invaded England (July), York tried to organize resistance, buthe soon submitted (July 27), recognizing that Richard's cause was lost.[Encyclopædia Britannica CD '97]
