Grace de Roos was the wife of Philip de Tilney, Knt., of Boston, Lincolnshire, and, in right of his wife, of Lonedon (in Tydd St. Mary), Lincolnshire, and Ringborough in Holderness, Yorkshire, Knight of the Shire for Lincolnshire, deputy butler, Boston, Sheriff of cos. Cambridge and Huntingdon, Chief steward of the duchy of Lancaster for the North Parts, Steward to Bishop Fordham of Ely, Alderman of Corpus Christi guild, Boston, Lincolnshire. As I recall, there is a biography of Sir Philip Tilney in Roskell's House of Parliament which you gentlemen might wish to consult.

I've had difficulty proving Grace Roos' parentage, so I'm glad this charter has surfaced. The previous owner in title at both Ringborough and Tydd St. Mary was John de Roos, who was evidently Grace's grandfather, not her father as I thought was the case.

Grace married Sir Philip Tilney Knight, son of Federick Tilney and Margery Lyne.¹²³⁰ (Sir Philip Tilney Knight was born about 1335 in Boston, Lincolnshire, England and died after 1400 in England.)
