Heiress Maud de Grey of Sutton 
Maud was born about 1355 in Rotherfield Greys Castle, Henley-On-Thames, Oxfordshire, England. Maud's father was Baron John de Grey of Rotherfeld and her mother was Maude de Burghersh. Her paternal grandparents were Baron John de Grey of Rotherfeld and Catherine fitzAlan; her maternal grandparents were Baron Bartholomew de Burghersh and Elizabeth de Verdon. She was an only child. She died after 1407 in Sutton-In-Holderness, West Riding Yorkshire, England.General Notes
Most sources have Maud as a Sutton, daughter of either Robert or Thomas. However Rosie Bevan, in a series of posts to SGM, which included the excerpt from a post on 1 Oct 2003:
Subject: The identity of Maud, wife of Sir Ralph Hastings

. . . From Ralph the younger's IPM, it looks like he was the second son and had the Sutton-in-Holderness lands, a third of which was held as dower by his mother Maud, who was still alive in 1407. Richard Hastings received Ralph's forfeited estate, and when he died without issue in 1437, all the properties passed to Leonard Hastings their younger brother whose IPM records their combined holdings.
Richard was knighted by 1401, and married secondly in 1427, Elizabeth, daughter of Henry, Lord Beaumont, and widow of William, Lord D'Eincourt. Of significance, CP IV 126 records that a dispensation was required for this marriage because William Deincourt and Richard Hastings were related in the 2nd and 3rd degree of consanguinity. It is my belief that this relationship was through Richard's mother, Maud, and the Greys of Rotherfield.
As can be seen from Ralph Hasting's IPM posted yesterday, Sutton in Holderness was held of the manor of Beverley of the archbishopric of York. Walter de Grey was archbishop when he died in 1255 and was well known for his nepotic distribution of archbishopric lands to his family. The Greys of Rotherfield, were descendants of Walter de Grey, nephew and namesake of the Archbishop.
The following PRO abstract provides proof of the Grey family's interest in Sutton-in-Holderness.
E 210/416
Grant by Robert de Gray of Retherfeld, to John de Nevill, knight, lord of Raby, of the reversion of the manor of Sculcotes and of ten messuages, with land and rent, in Bisshopburton and Sutton in Holdernesse, and of the reversion of the advowson of the church of Sculcotes : [ York. Kyngeston-on-Hull, 6 January, 49 [ Edward ] III.
As noted in Sir Ralph's will, one of the sons of Sir Ralph and Maud Hastings was named Bartholomew, and there is an instance of this name appearing in the Grey family from about 1350 to 1375. Bartholomew de Grey of Rotherfield d. 1375, was second son and heir of Sir John Grey d.1375, and Maud de Burghersh, daughter of Bartholomew de Burghersh the elder [CP VI 147]. They had three sons - Bartholomew, Robert and Richard, who are documented in Robert de Grey's 1388 IPM [CIPM xvi no.582]. Richard de Grey was the heir male of his elder brother, Robert, and it would seem likely Richard Hastings was named for him as chronologically Maud, wife of Ralph Hastings seems to be a full sister.
The following illustrates the second and third degree consanguinity
1.John de Grey of Rotherfield=Maud Burghersh
. 2. Robert Grey
. . 3. Joan de Grey
. . . 4. William Deincourt
. 2. Maud de Grey
. . 3. Richard Hastings
I would be interested in what people think.
Cheers
Rosie
