  • Sir Gilbert Denys(c. 1350–1422) of Siston, Gloucestershire, was a soldier, and later an administrator. He was knighted .... etc.
  • William Denys, second son, who according to the Devon historian Sir William Pole (d.1635)[16] married Johanna St Aubyn (born 1411), widow of Otho Bodrugan, apparently a Cornishman, and one of the two daughters and co-heiresses of John St Aubyn, of Combe Raleigh in Devon, captain of Fangermen in Normandy. William had by her a single child, a daughter who became the wife of John Bonville, the illegitimate son of William Bonville, 1st Baron Bonville(c.1392/3-1461), of Shute, Devon, by his mistress, Elizabeth Kirkby. Risdon was well-versed in the history of the separate ancient family of Denys of Devon, which originated at Orleigh, near Bideford, and is thus unlikely to have been in error in identifying William as the "son of Sir Gilbert Dennis of Wales". .... etc.

  • Bonville’s heir was his great grand daughter Cecily, not yet one year old, who was later to be married to the King’s stepson, Thomas Grey, marquess of Dorset, and, after his death, to Henry Stafford, earl of Wiltshire. Certain of the Bonville estates had been entailed by the deceased’s grandfather on the male line, and passed accordingly to his brother Thomas and then to the latter’s son John, on whose death in 1494 the legitimate male line of the family became extinct. Lord Bonville’s liaison with one Isabel Kirkby had resulted in the issue of an illegitimate son, John (d.1499) on whom he had settled quite substantial properties.20
