This document may serve to throw some new light on the question agitated by Sir Harris Nicolas, in his “Synopsis of the Peerage,” (I. 123 and 281), regarding the Barony of Powes, or Powis. Here, soon after 1446, we find Richard Grey claiming to be Lord Powes, as son and heir of Henry Grey, Lord Powes. Richard Grey, Lord Powes, must have been the person whose name stands as Dominus de Powes in the Rolls of Parliament 33 Henry VI. Whether he obtained the promised reward of 500 marks, for the taking of the rebel Griffith Vaghan by his father, does not appear.
