Notes about Walter de Calverley Sir

Note: Even though AR and MCS state, in a correction to their prior lines, that Walter Calverley was a son by a previous wife, Paul Reed, researching with original sources, charters, etc., has proven that Walter's mother was Joan Bigod, as AR & MCS originally had it, except she was a daughter of the prior generation.
