John 4th Baron de Audley's father was John Tuchet , of Markheaton, Sir and his mother was Margaret (Margery\Maud) Mortimer. His paternal grandparents were John Tuchet , of Markeaton, Sir and Joan de Audley; his maternal grandparents were Roger de Mortimer , KG, 2nd Earl of March and Phillipa de Montagu.

Sir John Tuchet, b. 23 April 1371, d. 19 Dec 1408, 2nd Lord Tuchet, MP 1406-1408; m. Isabel, living 3 May 1405. [Magna Charta Sureties]
Note: I think that Burke's keeps the numbering consistant with the original Baron Audley, because they name the next generation "James Touchet/Tuchet, 5th Baron Audley", whereas MCS and some others start the numbering over when the Tuchet/Touchet family took over the Barony. I will stick with Burke's when it comes to titles.
---------------------
BARONY OF TUCHET (I)
JOHN TUCHET, son and heir, born 23 April 1371, was one of the 3 coheirs of Nicholas, Lord Audley, who died s.p. 22 July 1391. He was appointed in 1394 on a Commission of Enquiry and in 1401 was a Commissioner of Peace in Derbyshire. During the Welsh wars against Owen Glendower he was ordered to muster at Hereford, 27 August 1404 and was in the Prince of Wales's muster at Shrewsbury, 1403, with 20 squires and 10 archers. After that battle (21 July) he was appointed, 23 July 1403, with 4 others, to govern the marches towards Wales and resist Glendower; and was also Keeper of Llandovery Castle, 8 September 1403. He was summoned to Parliament on 20 October 1403, by writ directed Johanni Tochet, and from 25 August 1404 to 26 August 1407, by writs directed Johanni Tuchet, whereby he is held to have become LORD TUCHET or TOCHET. However, he was never so called but was frequently styled LORD AUDLEY in official documents. He was joint Keeper (with the Earl of Warwick) of Brecknock Castle, 24 October 1403-19 February 1403/4, and sole Keeper thereof, 14 October 1404. On 10 October 1404 he was at Coventry with 30 squires and 60 archers; and he was present at the surrender of Aberystwith, 12 September 1407. He married Elizabeth (or Isabel) and died 19 December 1408, aged 37. His widow, Elizabeth, was to be assigned dower, 3 May 1409, but nothing was done.

BARONY OF AUDLEY (IV)
JOHN TUCHET, great nephew and coheir, being son and heir of John Tuchet, who was son and heir of Sir John Tuchet of Markeaton, co. Derby, (slain at Rochelle, 1371), by Joan, sister of the whole blood of Nicholas, 3rd Lord Audley. He was born 23 April 1371, and was 20 years old at the death of his said great uncle, in 1391, to whom he was found one of his next heirs. He was in the Welsh wars against Glendower, and was summoned to Parliament as a Baron [LORD AUDLEY] 20 Oct 1403 to 26 Aug 1407, the writs being probably terminated in his favour; the writ was, however, directed (merely) Johanni Tuchet (LORD TUCHET?). According to modern doctrine, which was not then invented, the issue of a writ would probably be regarded as terminating the abeyance (then unknown) in the Barony of Audley. He married, Isabel, who was living June 1405. He died in December 1408, aged about 38. [Complete Peerage I:340-41 XIV:51, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]
