Following excerpted from a posting to soc.genealogy.medieval newsgroup:

I should add that when I first posted my discovery of the 1276/7 fine, I was of the 
impression that John and Maud de Grey were small children when the fine was 
recorded. I held this view because Complete Peerage stated that John was said to be 
aged 40 at the time of his father's death in 1308, or born about 1268. However, it now 
appears that that John was actually closer to age 50 in 1308, which is indicated by 
John's first appearance as an adult in the records in the late 1270's, as shown by 
Moor's Knights of Edward I. I have also since located the Grey pedigree in Blore's 
History of Rutland which states that John de Grey married Maud, daughter of John de 
Verdun. Since Blore never saw the fine below, it would appear he relied on another 
source for the marriage of John and Maud de Grey.

best always, Douglas Richardson, Salt Lake City, Utah
