Notes:

Albrighton was mentioned in the Domesday book as Albricston or the home/farm of Albric, it received its charter in 1303, which was renewed in 1662 for rather unusual reasons. The charter declared that "because Albrighton (then) adjoined Staffordshire on the east, south and west sides, felons and other malefactors fled Staffordshire to escape prosecution because there was no resident justice of the peace in that part of Shropshire". The parish church, dedicated to Mary Magdalene was completed in around 1181, and some rebuilding work was done in 1853. It is built of red sandstone in the Norman style. The church contains an Alabaster monument to Sir Craig Wilson, as well as the Albrighton Mace donated to the village in 1663, by Lady Mary Talbot. The east window of the church dates from the 14th century. For most of the 14th century and into the 15th the manor of Albrighton, together with Ryton, was held by the Carles, Careles or Careless family. The Carles were connected by marriage to the Lestranges (Lords Strange of Blackmere) and the Talbots. Albrighton left the control of this family with the marriage of an heiress to a member of the Corbet family in the reign of Henry VI. The Earl of Shrewsbury is the premier Earl of England and until 1918, the biggest land owner in Albrighton. They were originally the Talbot family, many of whom are buried in Albrighton Church. Early in the 17th century, Albrighton was noted for making buttons and then in the 18th century clock making flourished. By 1880 it was bricks, but by and large, agriculture was the main industry before the building of the railways.

Others in her ancestry were the House of Normandy, Kings of Scotland, House of Capet, Kings of France, Carolingians, Emporers of the West, Emporers of the East, Princes of Wales, and Spanish Rulers. From Bulkeley "...Grace Chetwood was descended form an ancient family of Buckinghamshire [Chetwode]...we rely chiefly on the pedigree from the parchment roll which some years ago was in the possession of Sir George Chetwode...She...stemmed from manorial families and it so chances that through her great-grand-mother, Anne Talbot, she descended from many of the great historic families of England, such as the Talbots, the Percys, and the Nevills...Anne Talbot had fourteen legitimate lines of descent from the first Plantagenet King of England."

Grace married Peter Bulkeley about Apr 1635 in Fairfield County, Connecticut. Peter (son of Edward Bulkeley and Olive Irby) was born on 31 Jan 1582 in Bedfordshire, England; died on 9 Mar 1657/58 in Concord, Middlesex Co, Massachusetts. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
