| BP1934 reports that Richard & Anne "had four sons, of whom the 3rd was" Grimbald. Commoners shows an intervening generation with "£inter alios" Walter as father of Grimbald. We presume (provisionally) that Walter was an elder brother of Grimald. | |||||||||||||||

| m. Gulielma Bridges (dau of Colonel _ Bridges) | |||||||||||||||
| Commoners shows Rachel as sister rather than daughter of Robert but we presume to show her as his daughter because she is described in TCP (Kincardine) & TSP (Elgin & Kincardine) as daughter of Robert Pauncefort of Herefordshire. | |||||||||||||||
