Kntd. 28 Aug. 1570.Northumb. Peds. ed. Foster, 62; Hist. Northumb. (Northumb. Co. Hist. Comm.) xiv. 328-9. Shaw, following Harl. 6063, f. 24, names Henry Grey of Northumb. as knighted in 1570. As Thomas does not appear in his list, and no Sir Henry Grey can be traced for the period, it seems reasonable to assume an error in the manuscript list.
