Faris in "Plantagenet Ancestry", p. 277 says that John de Welles, 3rd Lord Welles, married Maud, probable daughter of William de Ros, 2nd Lord Ros of Helmesley; one of John and Maud's children was John de Welles, 5th Lord Welles, b. 1352. Her ancestry is from "The Complete Peerage" & Weis's "Ancestral Roots" & "Magna Charta Surities."

=== From Douglas Richardson on Margaret "Maud" de Ros (Roos) ===
↑ taken from a 2004 Gen-Medieval Rootsweb post by Douglas Richardson, Salt Lake City, Utah. Context for the description provided in a fuller extract:
...I showed that Maud de Welles' grandson, Henry le Scrope, was styled "kinsman" by King Henry V of England. Again, assuming that Maud de Welles was a Roos, King Henry V of England and Henry le Scrope would be related in the 4th and 4th degrees of kinship (that is 3rd cousins), by virtue of common descent from Bartholomew de Badlesmere, Knt., 1st Lord Badlesmere (died 1322).
At that point, a deadend seemed to be hit. Recently, however, I was going through the fascintating multi-volume series, Catalogue of Seals in the British Museum, by Walter de Gray Birch. In Volume 3 (1894), pg. 651, Mr. Birch included the description of a surviving seal of a certain Matildis de Well' [Maud de Welles], who he identified as being the widow of Sir John de Well[es], of Lincolnshire. This would be Maud, wife of John de Welles, 4th Lord Welles. The seal was evidently taken from a document taken 1373, during the period of Lady [Welles]' widowhood. According to Mr. Birch, the seal has a shield of arms on it. The dexter side (usually reversed for the husband's arms) is uncertain. The sinister side (usually reserved for the woman's arms) display the arms of Roos, namely three water-bougets, two and one. I believe this seal is conclusive evidence that Maud de Welles was a Roos.
Special acknowledgement go to Mr. Walter de Gray Birch for his painstaking job of transcribing the details of thousands of medieval seals in the British Museum. Now that was a medieval genealogist!
