Isabel, wife of Sir Roger de Lascelles

Question

The profile of Isabel Greystoke, wife of Sir Roger de Lascelles is Project Protected.  In it her connected father is Thomas de Greystoke but the Profile does not include any sources.  The Complete Peerage entry for Roger de Lascelles (v. 7, pp. 444-9) names his wife as Elizabeth or Isabel, but does not identify her parents.  In 2006 John Ravilious posted a message on soc.genealogy.medieval suggesting that her parents were Joan de Greystoke and her husband William FitzRalph  See https://groups.google.com/g/soc.genealogy.medieval/c/ASE0ruPqH8s/m/yh06rvhZnqoJ.  Can someone from the England Project look at this and perhaps remove the father given and adding a Research Note?

Hi Mary, there was a mistake in the URLs of the profiles you were discussing but even when I corrected the URL they still didn't want to open. Not sure why the corrected URL didn't want to work but I've linked them instead.

Hi Mary
I'm not a member of the England project and won't make the changes, but John Ravilious presents a strong case that Isabel can't be a member of the Greystoke family based on the fact that neither she or her descendants had a share in the Greystoke estate.  It probably needs double-checking with the primary sources but it looks sound.
