10. MAUD HASTANG, daughter and co-heiress, baptized at Chebsey, Staffordshire 2 Feb. 1358/9. Her godparents included Maud Trussell, who appears to have been her maternal grandmother, Maud (de Saint Philibert) Trussell. She married shortly after 20 August 1373 (grant of her marriage) RALPH STAFFORD, Esq., of Stafford and Crakemarsh, Staffordshire, and, in right of his wife, of Grafton, Worcestershire, Grandborough, Leamington Hastings, etc., Warwickshire, and Shenington, Oxfordshire, Knight of the Shire for Worcestershire, 1383, 1384, 1401, Justice of the Peace for Worcestershire, 13891390, Knight of the Shire for Staffordshire, 1404, illegitimate son of John de Stafford, Knt., of Bramshall and Amblecote, Staffordshire, Knight of the Shire for Staffordshire, Joint Warden of part of the Marches of Scotland, by Margaret, daughter of Ralph de Stafford, K.G., 1st Earl of Stafford [see STAFFORD 9]. He was born about 1355.

They had three sons, Humphrey, Knt., John, and Fulk (clerk).

He accompanied his cousin, Hugh Stafford, Earl of Stafford, in the French expedition of 1373.

He was in France in 1376, when the dean of Poitiers granted him a license to choose his own confessor.

He went abroad again in 1381, when he was issued letters of protection as a member of the free company commanded by Theodore, the so-called canon of Robesart. Further letters were issued to him in 1383, on his departure to Dunkirk with Henry le Despenser, Bishop of Norwich, for his ill fated crusade on behalf of the rebellious townsmen of Ghent.

In 1384 he and his cousin, Sir Nicholas Stafford, were appointed to act as attorneys for Richard Tyseo, a clerk.

In 1390, he was arrested and held in the Tower, as a result of his violent intervention in a dispute over a prebend at the collegiate church of Gnosall, Staffordshire. He was examined in Chancery, and released on bail of ???600, raised by his brother, Humphrey Stafford, Knt., and John Delves, Knt.

In 1399 he obtained a papal indult allowing plenary remission of sins at the hour of death.

He was a retainer for his cousin, Humphrey Stafford, Earl of Stafford, during the rebellion of 1400, and followed the Earl on his journey to Scotland later that year.

In 1401 he was bound over in 100 marks to behave peaceably towards Ralph Merston.

In 1405 William Beauchamp, Lord Bergavenny, claimed that he and his son, Humphrey, broke into his park at Feckenham, Worcestershire and caused considerable damage.

In 1406 he acquired lands in Longridge (in Penkridge), Staffordshire from Simon Pykstoke and his wife, Alice.

RALPH STAFFORD, Esq., died 1 March 1410. His wife, Maud, predeceased him.
