It is really something to sing and dance about.
Dig up those old bones and get them dancing!

Change the two party system
so people against something like abortion
but for something like environmental protection never again get bigger and badder storms
and two bankrupting wars instead.

Grandison: Grandison of Ashperson, Grelle of Manchester, Grendon of Grendon, Grendon of Shenstone
Although TCP Grandison notes that the father of Otho and William may have been Amadee, Sn de Granson, it suggests that their most probable parents were ...Gr22 Ebal IV de Granso, Waadt Switzerland married Beatrix de Geneva, daughter of Amadeo I Count de Geneva and Von Domene b 1126 in Geneva Switzerland, and granddaughter of Aimon I Count de Geneva and Itha de Fau de Faucigny, and great granddaughter of Gerold I Count of Geneva b 1000 in geneva d 1058 and Gisele de Geneva b 1025 in Geneva, and 2nd great granddaughter of Aimon I de Vienne b 940 in Geneva, d 1016 and Bertha le Blount de Flanders Countess of Flanders b 961 in Flanders d. 30th May 1039

a. John de Grendon not mentioned by TCP
1+ issue - Henry, Thomas, Nicholas, Robert, Ranulph
b. Sir Ralph de Grendon of Grendon and Shenstone d before 25.12.1279
Assuming that TCP is correct, BE1883 appears to confuse the marriage of this Ralph with those of his son, not naming his son's wife/wives but naming this Ralph's 1st wife as Johanna and his 2nd wife as A. de Clinton by whom he was mother of 3 daughters. We follow TCP which confirms that the 3 daughters were half-sisters of the next Ralph. This leaves no definite place for Joane de Grendon, shown by BE1883 to have been sister of Ralph, 2nd Lord, and married to John Rochford by whom she had Sir Ralph, father of Margery. TCP mentions an Isabel, wife of John de Rochford, as claiming a dower from Robert de Grendon so she may have been a sister of this Ralph.

Shown by BE1883 as a generation earlier but this is presumed to be the Alice who married John, apparently brother of the Joan shown above as married to her brother.
