I believe that his correct display name should be "Roger de Grey, 1st Baron Grey de Ruthyn". This comports with the Peerage's entry ( http://thepeerage.com/p4051.htm#i40502 ), with Burke's Peerage and Baronetage, and with the correct use of specific ranks of nobility, rather than the ambiguous "Lord".

Agree & edit made. It looks like thepeerage.com still has, however:

Sir Roger de Grey, 1st Lord Grey (of Ruthin)

Yes it should be Roger de Grey 1st Baron, mind you I do not find the Peerage.com a very reliable source, names ,titles and partnerships are often incorrect, be careful and always double check with a second source if possible.

If you want you can report the mistake to the content creator of the Peerage.com : darryl@thepeerage.com
