• Notes

  Edmun Grey, 4th Lord (Baron) Grey (of Ruthin) and 1st Earl of Kent, so created 30 May 1465; initially a Lancastrian in the War of Roses but switched sides at the Battle of Northampton 10 July 1460, thus probably being the chief cause of the Yorkist victory then. [Burke's Peerage] --------------- Edmund Grey, Lord Grey of Ruthin, Earl of Kent, b. 26 Oct 1416, d. 22 May 1490. [Magna Charta Sureties]
