| Not mentioned by Commoners (which is strange, if he is indeed of this family of this generation, given that Commoners provides a quite lengthy note on the sons of Orm) but shown by various web sites as of this generation was the following Ralph. We suspect that the relevant Ralph may have been the one shown above as son of Robert FitzOrm. That that Ralph is shown as dsp need not be a complete barrier to his having had a daughter as 'dsp' was often recorded when 'dspm' would have been more accurate. | |||||||||||||||
