After a preliminary look at what's available online, it seems that Audrey Barlow not only has a couple of connections to the Magna Carta Sureties, but a strong Plantagenet lineage as well. Her ancestry reaches back to William Longspee, illegitimate son of Henry II and, apparently, King John, son of Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine.
There is still some work to do on sorting out who begat whom, but Audrey's lineage could turn out to be quite interesting. More as it gets sorted out.
