Pop-up Pedigree

Father   Philip de Draycote1 b. circa 1150

Birth* circa 1180 Richard was born circa 1180.1 
!AInfoNew* 1200 This Draycott is indeed well documented and one of the most famous of the family. He was Justice of Chester and in 1244-50 he was a Knight. He also acquired land in Calton, (Derbs.), and Tillington.2 
Marriage* Richard de Draycote married Aliva or Alina de Legh, daughter of Robert de Legh.2  
Marriage* Richard de Draycote married Orabella of Tene. This was a second marriage for both.2 
!AInfoNew Sir Richard certainly married twice and maybe three times. His first wife was Aliva or Alina de Legh of Leigh near Uttoxter. Although there is no reference too her, W. Fowler Carter reckons that Sir Richard had a second wife, and his third wife, who survived him was Orabilis or Orabella, (modern day "Arabella"), who was sister of Sarra de Thene (Tean). She was previously married to a Robert de Bek, and obviously was not married to Richard long, for in 1272 we hear of her as wife of William Wyther, who was a Knight and described as a "distinguished man-at-arms".2 
Death* between 1260 and 1268
Richard died between 1260 and 1268.2
