    RALPH BASSET, son and heir. He was returned as Knight of the Shire for co. Stafford on 6 March 1299/I300. He was lord of one of the two manors in Cheadle, co. Stafford, in 1316.

    He married 1stly, Elizabeth, 1st daughter and in her issue coheir of Roger COLVILL, [LORD COLVILL] by Margaret, daughter of Sir Richard BREWES. He married 2ndly shortly before 21 July 1295, Margaret, widow of Urian DE ST. PIERRE of Peckforton, Horsley, &c., co. Chester. He is said to have died 1322.

    Note: With her mother Margaret the daughter of a "bef 9 Sep 1265" marriage and her son "b. bef 1295" when Elizabeth was presumably dead and Ralph was marrying for the 2nd time, there is not a lot of room for variation in the birth dates of the three inidividuals: (1) 1265 for Margaret, which is the earliest possible given the marriage date; (2) 1280 for Elizabeth, which splits the difference and has two women in a row bearing children at the age of 15; (3) abt 1295 for the son Simon, which is the latest possible. It also means that poor Elizabeth had a very short life; I would guess that she probably died in child birth having her son Simon.
