For what it is worth, Douglas Richardson concurs with the below - wife's maiden name is not known - per Royal Ancestry (2013) Vol V - on page 6. There were no notes listed either. It does show first name as Hawise.

Sir Ralph 1st Baron Basset of Drayton [1244-1299] of Drayton Bassett, Tamworth, Staffordshire, England,

m. Hawise de Grey [1255-1343] of Shirland, Derbyshire, England, daughter of Sir John de Grey of Shirland and Joan Esquire of London

This is wrong her maiden name is unknown.

The Wade wife appears to be the wife of another Ralf Basset (of Weldon). Contrast Complete Peerage Vol.2 p.9 and p.2. This Ralf is the one of Drayton (p.2)

Also weird is that Margaret was 11 years old when she gave birth to Ralph. Please fix. Thanks!

That appears to be a possibility. Will look at it a littlr closer this weekend and rebuild the lost Ralph if needed. Thanks for the heads up.

One of the sources given -

http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/minibios/c/FAMILY_BOOK_VolI.pdf - shows two different Ralphs


-Ralph Bassett of Drayton (1244 - 1299) married Hawise de Grey (1255 - 1343)

-Ralph Bassett of Weldon (1232 - 1291) marriedAlianor Wade (1239 - 1293)

There is something seriously fishy about the chronology of this family

Before 1262 Ralph Basset (1244 - 1299) married Alianor Wade

1262 Ralph and Alianor had a son, Ralph

Before 1273 Ralph married Hawise Grey (c1255 - c1343)

1273 Ralph and Hawise had a son, Richard

after 1279 Ralph and Hawise had a son, Ralph (1279 - 1342)

1280 Ralph and Hawise had a daughter, Margaret (1280 - 1336) AND 1280 Ralph and Alianor had a son, John

1285 Ralph and Hawise had a son, John (1285 - 1342)

It would appear that, between 1273 and 1293, Ralph was married to BOTH Alianor AND Hawise.

My guess is that there are two different Ralph Bassett's who have been incorrectly merged.

Basset-491 and Basset-76 appear to represent the same person because: appears to be intended to be same person because of wife
