Agnes was the daughter of Sir Thomas de Crophull and Sybil de la Bere. She married first Walter Devereux (d.1402), and married secondly Sir John Parr of Kendal (d.1409 - among their descendants was Katherine Parr, 6th and last wife of King Henry VIII.) Agnes then married third Sir John (also known as Nicholas?) Merbury (d.1438) keeper of the king's jewels to Henry VI.
However her inherited lands passed to the Devereux family, and eventually, through the heirs of Robert Devereux (1591-1646), 3rd and last Earl of Essex, to the Thynne family of Longleat, later Marquesses of Bath, who eventually sold it in the 19th century.
