THE CONNECTION WITH (22) RANDOLPH - Duke of Westmoreland BEING THE FATHER OF (23) RANDOLPH - fifth son of Randolph and Catherine. IS NOT CORRECT ACCORDING TO SEVERAL OTHER LISTINGS

• Fitz Randolph Traditions: A Story of a Thousand Years (1907)
• http://www.archive.org/stream/fitzrandolphtra00randgoog#page/n153/m...
• CHAPTER IX
• Review of Line of Descent from Rolf the Norseman to Edward the Pilgrim
• Here, then, once more the writer pauses to recapitulate his ascertainments and conclusions. To the following ancestral story - here given in merest outlne - any American Fitz Randolph, who has been at the trouble of tracing his lineage back to Edward the Pilgrim, may, we believe, safely and reasonably link his line.
• (1) ROLF - The norseman Conqueror. Born about A.D. 860. Died A.D. 932. Married Gisela, daughter of King Charles of France.
• (2) WILLIAM, "Longsword" - Duke of Normandy. Died about 943.
• (3) RICHARD, "The Fearless" - Duke of Normandy. Reigned more than half a century. Died A.D. 996.
• (4) RICHARD, "The Good" - Duke of Normandy. Died A.D. 1026.
• (5) RICHARD - Duke of Normandy. Whose wife was Judith. He died A.D. 1028. [He was father of Robert "The Magnificent," whose son was William "The Conqueror," and he was brother of Avicia, who married Geoffrey, Duke of Brittany.]
• (6) GEOFFREY, AVICIA.
• (7) EUDO - Duke of Brittany. Married Agnes, daughter of Alan, and died in 1079.
• (8) RIBALD - Lord of Middleham. [Brother to Alan Rufus, Duke of Richmond, and to Stephen and to Bardolf.] Married Beatrix, and spent his last days in retirement at St. Mary's Abbey, York.
• (9) RANDOLPH - Lord of Middleham. Married Agatha, daughter of the first Robert of Bruce.
• (10) ROBERT FITZ RANDOLPH - Lord of Middleham. Who built the Castle of Middleham and married Helewisa de Glanville.

Whose first wife was Margaret (daughter of Hugo), Lady Stafford - descended from Edward I - and whose second wife was Joan of Beaufort, daughter of John of Gaunt and granddaughter of Edward III. He died in 1435. By his second wife his posterity runs into and adown the English royal line. See page 36. We now follow the posterity of the Earl of Westmoreland by his first wife, Lady Stafford.
• (18) JOHN (the children of whose brother Randolph were all daughters) married Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Holland, Earl of Canterbury. He died two years before his father, in 1433.
• (19) JOHN, heir presumptive f to the dukedom of Westmoreland. Was hero of the battle of Towton, in the year 1461, and bravely lost his life there on the Lancastrian side. He had married Anna, the widow of John de Neville.

• (23) RANDOLPH - fifth son of Randolph and Catherine. The first son being Henry, whose son Charles was the last in the line of these dukes of Westmoreland, and the other sons being Thomas, Edward, Christopher and Cuthbert. Died probably about 1565.
