[This Barony is variously described as Cherleton, Cherleton de Powys, and Grey de Powys, but as it originated earlier than its devolu- tion ttpon the Cherleton family, there can be no question that the Peerage originally was a Barony of Powys, and the addition of the words "de Powys " to the Cherleton writs and to the Grey writs be- comes intelligible as proof that they were all issued in the same Barony.] ROCHFORT (1495). — Heirs: The heir A of Anne, wife of Sir James St. Leger ; the Baroness Berkeley A.
