  === Life Sketch ===
  William, son and heir of Ranulf, may have been in ward to William de Stutevill for a few years before 1194, when he had acquittance of 66s. 8d. of scutage, having served in person with his knights in the army in Normandy. His name recurs in the accounts of various scutages down to 1200, when he paid 4m. towards li4, 8s, 10d. due the previous year to the first scutage after John's coronation. In 1202 he paid 8.s. 8d. more, and the balance in 1207. In that year he made an agreement with Gilbert de Gant about his land in Ellerton-upon-Derwent.
  
  He died in 1209, leaving by Heloise de Stutevill, his wife, Thomas, his eldest son and heir, under age. Thereupon Robert de Vieuxpont proffered 500 marks and 5 palfreys for custody of the heirs and their land, their marriage, and that of Heloise de Stutevill, relict of William. This lady had possessions in her own right in Kirkoswald and Lazenby, co. Cumb., and large possessions which she held in dower of the endowment of her former husbands, namely William de Lancaster II, baron of Kendal, who died in 1184, and Hugh de Morevill, who died in 1202.
  
  The estate of Heloise de Stutevill in Cumberland was valued at li30 in 1219, and that in co. Lancaster at li5, 10s. She was probably born about 1165, and must therefore have been 37 or 38 years of age when she married William, son of Ranulf de Greystoke. She was living in 1226.
  
  Thomas de Greystoke, son and heir of William, as a mere lad, was in the last expedition of Poitou in the reign of John with Robert de Vieuxpont, his guardian. This must have been in 1216. He can hardly have been of age in November, 1222, when he had acquittance of li6, 13s. 4d., demanded at the Exchequer for the scutage of Poitou, then excused for the reason stated above.
