m. Maud de St. Liz (d by 1163, dau of Simon de St. Liz, Earl of Huntingdon and Northampton)
BE1883 identifies 2 sons of this marriage, Saier and Robert, but identifies Saier as the 1st Earl, showing him as brother rather than son of Robert. We follow TCP.

(1) Maddison provides 4 sections on Quincey families, compiled from various wills, 2 of which are combined below. One started with Edmund (will dated1564) and the other Lawrence (will dated 1573). Lawrence is identified as "witness of Edmund Quincey's will 1564). The other showed William, Edmund's son, as "supervisor to his uncle Lawrence Quincey's will 1573".
(2) Maddison adds a note to say: "The arms borne in later times were those of Quincy, Earls of Winchester, to which this family had not the remotest claim."
