b. c.1428, s. and h. of William, Lord Zouche of Harringworth (d.1462) by his 1st. w. Alice (1409-47), da. and h. of Richard, 5th Lord St. Maur (d.1409) and Mary, wid. of John Broughton of Broughton, Bucks., da. and (in her issue) h. of Thomas Pever† (d.1429) of Toddington, Beds. m. by contract Nov. 1435, Katherine (d. 15 Oct. 1471), da. of Sir William Plumpton* by his 1st w. Elizabeth Stapleton, 1s. An inq. taken in 1498 has the mother of his heir as Katherine, da. and h. of Sir Roland Lenthall of Hampton Court, Herefs., by Lucy, da. of Richard, Lord Grey of Codnor: C142/13/15. This is an error, for Katherine Plumpton was undoubtedly his only wife. The confusion, deliberate or otherwise, was with John Zouche (b.c.1446), son of Lucy’s sister Elizabeth by our MP’s uncle, John: C138/175/4. Another connexion between the Zouches and Lenthalls was provided by the brief marriage of our MP’s sister, Margaret, to Sir Roland’s son and heir, Edmund Lenthall (d.1447) of Bromfield, Denb.: CPL, ix. 586; C139/129/34; C141/4/43. Kntd. by Mar. 1463; summ. as Lord Zouche of Harringworth 23 Feb. 1463, 1467.
