There is a discussion regarding the wife of Thomas, Lord Bardolf in Complete Peerage. Coming to no very firm conclusion it discusses the possibility that she was the 7th daughter of Thomas Beauchamp, Earl of Warwick. The other possibility noted was that she could have been daughter of William de Grandison and Blanche of Savoy. [7]
However it seems that William's first wife was Jeanette de Gruyere. [8]Agnes daughter of William by his second wife, Sybil de Tregoz had a life of her own. Blanche of Savoy was probably wife of Pierre de Grandison. [9]
There is a strong possibility that this profile is intended to be the same person as wife of Thomas Bardolf or unknown Bardolf, Agnes Beauchamp.

It does sound as though William was married 2 times-

'To the wife of William de Grandison. Indult for five years to visit three times a year the Cistercian monasteries of Dora and Flayleye, in the diocese of Hereford, founded by her ancestors, accompanied by six women, and there to cause divine service to be celebrated for the souls of the elder sons of her said husband, and all the faithful departed.' THIS IS REFERING TO HIS 2ND WIFE SYBIL TREGOZ & IT MENTIONS THE ELDER SONS OF HER HUSBAND & NOT THEIR SONS.
'David Williams traced the citation to an undated mid-18th century manuscript genealogy, which he consulted in the Burgerbibliothek in Bern. He notes the absence of any source reference for the marriage in the document, but highlights Wattenwyl’s use of primary source material and concludes that “there is no obvious reason to believe that Wattenwyl fabricated the marriage, and very probably he used otherwise unknown charter evidence or an earlier genealogy as his source”. If this marriage is correct, it must have taken place after Mar 1267 when Jeannette is named with her parents and siblings: "Petrus miles filius…Rodulfi comitis de Gruyeria" donated property to the abbey of Hauterive, with the consent of "domine Ambrosie uxoris nostre et Petri filii nostri et Willermete uxoris eiusdem Petri necnon filiarum nostrarum Ioannete, Perrete et Columbe", by charter dated Mar 1267. The possibility of this Grandson/Gruyère marriage seems good, especially as Jeannette’s older brother was already married to Guillaume’s sister'.

Jeannette's brother Pierre was married to William Grandison's sister Guillemette who is sounds reasonable to me.

The history of the Manor of Lydiard Tregoze- Sybil de Grandison died in 1334 and William in 1335. William's heir was his son, Peter, but in 1331, William and Sybil had leased Lydiard to their daughter, Agnes, widow of John de Northwood, for her life.

He [Thomas Bardolf] married Agnes, perhaps daughter of William DE GRANDSON, SEIGNEUR DE GRANDSON, on the Lake of Neuchatel in Switzerland, by Blanche, daughter of Louis DE SAVOIR, BARON DE VAUD. He died 15 December 1328, and was buried at Shelford Priory, Notts, aged 46. His widow, who had a protection, August 1337, as being "by birth of the parts of Almain," died 11 December 1357, at Ruskington, co. Lincoln. [Complete Peerage I:418, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]
Note: In note (d) CP I:418, in explaining that Agnes was NOT the seventh daughter of Thomas Beauchamp, Earl of Warwick, states that Agnes de Grandison married again, but did not say to whom. William de Grandison by his 2nd wife, Sibyl de Tregoz, had a daughter also named Agnes who married Roger de Northwode, but she was obviously a different person, with a different date of death (4 Dec 1348). I believe this Agnes was born in "Almain" (ie. Switzerland?), while the other Agnes was born in England.
Note: In CP XIV:64 (XIV is the volume of corrections), there is a remark that it is doubtful that Agnes was daughter of William de Grandson by Blanche de Savoir. Whether this means that she was probably not daughter of William or her mother wasn't Blanche, is not clear.
