I know Philip Durvassal is given the wife Felicia, daughter of Thomas

Even if she were, that wouldn't explain Sir Richard Vernon having the
interests in those Camville manors, especially as a minor, as it was
his son who married the heiress of William Durvassal...

I introduced it with only the heraldry in mind.

I am a little unsure about the pedigree as presented in VCH Warks.
Specifically, it reveals a contradiction: in 1347, John is given as
son of Thomas, son of Philip, son of Roger, yet another record shows a
John, d. 1323, with heir John, ae 23. It tries to harmonize these by
suggesting that in the latter record the deceased is misnamed and
should be Thomas. Alternatively, I wonder if the 1347 plea extract
might have dropped a generation - that the John was son of John, son
of Thomas, etc. Have you (or any one else) looked into this family and
come away with enough chronological information to resolve this?
