  • Notes 
    • According to Douglas Richardson (SGM, 11 Jan 2007), there is no evidence that the William de Tracy who held the baronage of Bradninch, and whose son was one of the murderers of Becket, was the same person as the William de Tracy who was an illegitimate son of Henry I.

      There is also no evidence that this William de Tracy was the father of a Grace who married John de Sudely, or that her surname was "de Tracy" at all.
