在1377- 1378年的一份请愿书中,约翰·科巴姆要求已故爱德华三世的情妇爱丽丝·佩瑞斯(公元1400- 1401年)追讨债务。除了对爱丽丝的地产有了新的了解外,请愿书还将约翰·索尔兹伯里列为她的兄弟。这一点,再加上证明她之前曾与简·佩瑞斯结婚的证据,表明爱丽丝不可能像之前认为的那样,是赫特福德郡佩瑞斯贵族王朝的后裔。关于“爱丽丝·索尔兹伯里”的身份,出现了许多可能性。理查二世的内室骑士约翰·索尔兹伯里的职业生涯被重建,试图建立任何可信的联系。爱丽丝在伦敦的为人所知的兴趣也引发了人们的疑问,即她是否与14世纪在首都经营的各种名为索尔兹伯里的家族有联系。她不愿说出或依赖任何亲戚的名字,这意味着最终不可能明确证明爱丽丝的家庭起源。然而,科巴姆的请愿书将约翰·索尔兹伯里与旺塔奇(伯克郡)周围的一系列庄园联系起来,并为沃尔辛厄姆的托马斯声称爱丽丝来自“亨尼”(伯克郡的西汉尼和东汉尼)提供了一些理由。进一步的证据表明,爱丽丝与一个名为Salesby的家族以及她在东汉尼(East Hanney)的一处庄园的前所有者约翰·索斯伯里(John Southbury)有联系,这产生了一个假设,即佩瑞斯的祖先是在伯克郡这个角落经营的一个小地主和商人家庭。
In a petition of 1377-8, John Cobham sought recovery of debts from Alice Perrers (d. 1400-1), the mistress of the deceased Edward III. In addition to shedding new light on Alice's landed estate, the petition names John Salisbury as her brother. This, in conjunction with evidence proving that she had previously been married to Janyn Perrers, demonstrates that Alice cannot, as previously thought, be a descendant of the Hertfordshire gentry dynasty of Perrers. A number of possibilities arise as to the identity of ‘Alice Salisbury’. The career of Richard II's chamber knight John Salisbury is reconstructed in an attempt to establish any credible links. Alice's known interests in London also raise questions as to whether she was associated with various families named Salisbury operating in the capital during the fourteenth century. Her own reluctance to name or rely on any of her relatives means that it is ultimately impossible definitively to prove Alice's family origins. However, the Cobham petition links John Salisbury to a series of manors around Wantage (Berkshire) and gives some justification to Thomas of Walsingham's claim that Alice came from ‘Henneye’ (West and East Hanney, Berkshire). Further evidence of Alice's connections with a family named Salesby and with John Southbury, the previous holder of one of her East Hanney manors, generates the hypothesis that Perrers's origins lay in a family of petty landholders and traders operating in this corner of Berkshire.
