Dame Eleanor Croft, reputedly had 340 descendants at her death in 1519.
Included Bessie Blount & Jane Guildford, future wife of John Dudley Duke of Northumberland. A great-great-great-grandmother. Possibly a record?

Croft Castle in Herefordshire, home for 1000 years to the Croft family (apart from a gap where they lost all their money when the South Sea Bubble burst in the 18thC ). The castle itself dates to the 17thC but there was an earlier castle on the site.
