Notes:

At the time of Ralph's birth, on 24 September 1301, the Staffords exercised considerable influence in the west midlands, but had yet to assume the prominent role in national affairs that fell to them as a result of his own success as a soldier, administrator, and courtier. The bulk of their estates lay in Staffordshire and Warwickshire, with a few additional holdings in Oxfordshire and Lincolnshire, and generated an annual income of about £200 net. This was not enough to support a senior member of the English baronage, although Edmund de Stafford had sufficiently distinguished himself in the Scottish wars of Edward I to merit a personal summons to parliament. The path of advancement through military service was followed with distinction by his son, whose lasting achievement was to elevate his family to the ranks of the higher nobility.

Having lost his father as a child, Ralph Stafford had come of age and entered his estates by December 1323. He spent his youth in the society of his mother's Staffordshire relatives and of her second husband, a local landowner named Thomas Pipe. Stafford's first known experience of royal service occurred in 1325, when he, his younger brothers, and their stepfather joined the retinue of his maternal uncle, Ralph, second Lord Basset of Drayton. Soon, however, he grew more independent. He was made a knight-banneret in January 1327, being recruited to fight against the Scots shortly afterwards. His support for the plot to free the young Edward III from the control of his mother's lover, Roger Mortimer, earned him the king's lasting gratitude, and marked the beginning of what was to become a close personal relationship. Mortimer's arrest at Nottingham Castle during the parliament of October 1330 enabled Edward to seize the reins of power himself.

More notes on Roger Dudley:

Capt. Roger Dudley: Roger Dudley (born between 1535 and 1545 -1586?/1590) was an English soldier.

Dudley was born in London, England, but some[who?] say that he was baptised in Yardley Hastings, Northamptonshire. However Dudley's parentage has never been satisfactorily established. Genealogist and researcher Marshall Kirk in 1993 published the results of his exhaustive survey of the Dudley families, and came to the conclusion that he was the son of Henry Sutton Dudley.

Roger may be the Roger Dudley who was matriculated as pensioner at Christ Church College, Cambridge, in 1566, but left without a degree. It is believed that he married, on June 8, 1575, at Lidlington, Bedfordshire, Susannah (Thorne), herself recorded as having been born on March 5, 1559/60 in Northamptonshire, and baptised at Yardley Hastings, the daughter of Thomas Thorne and Mary Purefoy.

He is reported to have been a Captain in (the Earl of Leicester)'s militia, fighting with a commission from Elizabeth I, and under the banner of Henry of Navarre. He is thought to have died at the Battle of Ivry, France in 1590. Yet in 1586, four years earlier, the Reverend Cotton Mather of Boston wrote: "Thomas Dudley's father was Captain Roger Dudley, -- slain in the wars, when -- his son, and one only daughter were very young". The will of Thomas Dorne (Thorne) of Yardley Hastings, Gent., dated 29 Oct 1588, bequeathed "to the children of Susan Dudley, my Daughter, widow, to be equally divided". (S1,S11). Therefore, he was apparently dead by the time of the will of his father-in-law, which was written in 1588, which eliminates the time of the Battle of Ivry as a possibility for his death.

It is most probable that he died at the Siege of Zutphen in 1586, having followed a relative, Robert Dudley, 1st Earl of Leicester, who was a principal figure in that battle. Marshall K. Kirk suggests that Roger made his home after his father's death with Peter Grey, a "Queen's servant", whose manor of Segenhoe was two miles from Lidlington, (Bedfordshire), where Roger was later married. Roger and Susannah Dudley raised at least five children, listed as: Thomas Dudley (second governor of Massachusetts) Mary Dudley Richard Dudley (b. 1583 – d. 20 Aug 1603) Dorothy Dudley. David Dudley.

Died:
Possibly killed in battle at Siege of Zutphen

Captain married THORNE, Susanna on 8 Jun 1575 in Lidlington, Bedfordshire, England. Susanna (daughter of THORNE, Thomas and PUREFOY, Mary) was born on 5 Mar 1559 in Yardley Hastings, Northamptonshire, England; was christened on 18 Oct 1560 in Rye, Sussex, England; died on 29 Oct 1588 in Northampton, Northamptonshire, England.
