General Notes

William FitzAlan, of Clun and Oswestry; dsp 1216.  [Burke's Peerage]

Note: Burke's has William dead without issue.  Burke's also has John (whom I have a son of this William) being a son of William (father of this William) who died about 1160.  I think that would make John almost 100 years old when he died, therefore I am going with the usually less reliable Plantagenet Ancestry and saying John was son of this William who died 1210, whom I guess Bernard Burke (see citation below) states died about 1172 and had another son William who may have dsp 1216.
