Biography

Investigation needed ... I found on dau. Petronilla's page and posted herein the text and sources below ... afterward discovering that this info conflicts (re: the mother of Maud, who m. de Ros), with Richardson and BHO, which both state that her mother was Joan _____, widow of Roger de Gyney, rather than Sibyl. ^{[1] [2]}

John de Vaux died in 1288, the 16th Year of the Reign of Edward I. 1288. By his wife Sybil, he left two daughters, between whom his vast possessions, amounting to no less than Forty-four Knights' Fees, were divided.

Petronilla, the eldest, married William de Nerford, whose heirs afterward married into the Family of Dacres.

Maud, the second daughter, became the wife of William de Ros, An ancestor to the present Duke of Rutland.

• Lots of sources shown on Petronilla's profile (added below), but I know not from which the above is quoted.
