[Roskell, in HoP sub Francis, states that Thomas Tudenham's widow married secondly to Sir Adam Francis in 1372. The Historical Gazeteer says that Adam Francis's first wife Margaret was probably the daughter of Thomas Tudenham and Margaret de Refham, given her children's "lifespans". Adam Francis's IPM from 1417 states that he held various London properties by the courtesy of England, i.e. they were the inheritance of his first wife, who was the mother of Adam's children (Adam, who died in infancy; Thomasina, who was a nun; Agnes, wife successively of Thomas de Basing, William Staundon and Sir William Porter, and Elizabeth, wife of Sir Thomas Charlton). The IPM says that Agnes was aged 30 and more in 1417 - i.e. born before 1387, and Elizabeth was aged 24 and more - i.e. born circa 1392; Roskell states that Margaret their mother was dead by 1393 (perhaps her death was consequent upon Elizabeth's birth). From a chronological perspective, it seems there is no good reason to doubt that Margaret Francis was widow of Thomas Tudenham. If she was born circa 1350 and married young to Thomas Tudenham, she could have been child-bearing as late as 1392.]
