Notes:

He married, 1stly, Elizabeth, widow of John, 4th LORD FFRRERS of Chartley (who died 2 April 1367), and before that of Fulk (LE STRANGE), LORD STRANGE (of Blackmere), daughter of Ralph (DE STAFFORD), 1st EARL OF STAFFORD, by Margaret, daughter and heir of Hugh (D'AUDLEY), EARL OF GLOUCESTER. She died 7 August 1376. [Complete Peerage III:353-4, XIV:196, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]

Note: the death date for Elizabeth de Stafford given above, "7 Aug 1376", does not agree with CP V:314 and AR, line 61-33, which give "7 Aug 1375". As the 1375 date is supported by a note (g) in V:314, I assume the 1376 date is a misprint.
