This Ralph's (d. 1507) wife cannot be Dame Isabel Grey of Ogle Castle (b. after 1527) if she died in 1532 and married before Dame Isabel's birth (who was a dau. by Dorothy's second marriage. Dorothy's first husband wrote his will 04 Mar 1526 and is buried at Bamburgh).

Dame Isabel's will is dated 06 Dec 1581.[1] Collins (1812), further states that her 1st husband's parents are Sir Edward Grey of Chillingham and Warke and Anne Gower from Yorkshire.

The only thing Ogle (1902) has to say about Dame Isabel (aside from her parents), is that she married a Ralph Grey of Chillingham and then Thomas Ogle of Lorbottle. He never names the parents of Ralph Grey.

Also note that Elizabeth UNKNOWN remarried to Christopher Clapham. Her kids with Ralph also differ from Dame Isabel.[2]
