Maud Francis, Countess of Salisbury (c. 1370 – c. 1424) was daughter of Sir Adam 
Francis, born 1362, Mayor of London, and Agnes Champnes. She was married and 
widowed three times. Her first husband was John Aubrey (son of another Mayor of 
London, Andrew Aubrey) and her second Sir Alan Buxhull, KG in 1372.

Her third husband was John Montacute, 3rd Earl of Salisbury, and they had five 
children:
Richard Montacute
Thomas Montacute, 4th Earl of Salisbury
Lady Anne Montacute who married Sir Richard II Hankford as his second wife, then 
Sir Lewis Johan as his second wife and thirdly John Holland, 2nd Duke of Exeter as 
his third wife. Lady Anne was the mother of Anne Hankford by her first marriage.
Lady Margaret Montacute
Lady Elizabeth Montacute

Following the death of Mary de Bohun, her son, the future Henry V, was given into the 
care of the Earl and Countess of Salisbury by his father, Henry Bolingbroke, the future 
King Henry IV of England. They cared for him at the manor of Courtfield in 
Herefordshire. An effigy in the church at Welsh Bicknor is believed to be that of the 
countess.

In 1400, the Earl of Salisbury was executed for treason by King Henry IV. In 1420, 
Maud petitioned King Henry V to have the earl's remains transferred from Cirencester 
Abbey to Bisham Priory.
