Notes:

Sheriff of Chester 1389, 1394-95. Loser in the celebrated Scrope v Grosvenor heraldic dispute.

"Sir Robert, we already know, while still a minor, married a daughter of Sir John Danyell, or Danyers, and accompanied his father-in-law to France in 1359-60. His subsequent services, under the Black Prince and Sir James Audley, come just ten years later; but he may have spent much or all of the intervening period in Guienne, as he did not pay homage to the abbot for his lands in Lostock until 1373. He was then a widower, his wife Margaret having died in June 1370, as he himself states in 1391, when called to prove the age of John, son of Sir Thomas Ardern, the occasion on which he gave his age as fifty. By a second marriage with Joan, the heiress of Pulford, he considerably improved the position of the family, securing with her a title to the manor of Pulford, an estate in Dunham Massey, and other lands besides; but, in consequence of subsisting life interests, the bulk of this property was first enjoyed by their son Sir Thomas Grosvenor, who was born in 1377." ["The Grosvenor Myth", citation details below.]

Robert married Joan de Pulford about 1378. Joan (daughter of Robert de Pulford and Jane) was born about 1347 in of Pulford, Cheshire, England; died before 22 Jun 1396. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
