This would indicate that the pedigree in the 1662 Notts visitation confused Beeston, Notts, with Beeston, Cheshire, and then just assumed that Dorothy was of the Beeston family. Of course any royal descent for Henry Gregory would go away. Also perhaps there would still be a royal descent through Maud Moton wife of John Gregory and daughter of Roger Moton.
