Biography
Alice Savage was probably born in Clifton, Cheshire, England, as her family were known as the Savages of Clifton.[1]
Alice was the daughter of Sir John Savage and his wife, Maud, daughter and heir of Robert Swinerton.[1] Sir John Savage was knighted by King Henry V at the battle of Agincourt in 1415.[1]
Alice was married to Sir Henry Bold.[1] The Visitation of the County Palatine of Lancaster, says the name of Sir Henry Bolde's wife was Grace [Latin: Gratia].[2] Henry's parents, Richard Bolde and Elen Halsale, married in 6 Henry IV[2] which was 30 September 1404-29 September 1405.
Grace and Henry were the parents of:

Grace was Sir Henry's widow in 1479-80. There is no indication in the Lancashire Visitation that Sir Henry married twice. Nor have I seen any indication elsewhere that he did.
I haven't found a source which includes Grace's surname, but of course I will keep looking.
In the meantime, if you prefer, it can be return to being an unmerged match?
I'll set them to an unmerged match for the moment, and check a few more potential sources to see if any of them have further details.
I don't think the 1664-5 Visitation means Grace was a widow when she married Henry Bold, I think it means she was recorded as living as Henry's widow in 1479-80.
