This Sir Geffrey le Savage, married Letice, daughte of Sir Henry de Arderne (otherwise Arden), and became connected with Warwickshire by alliance with the family from which Shakespeare in later years maternally descended. Sir Henry de Arderne, "by his deed in writing," according to Dugdale [Sir William Dugdale, Antiquities of Warwichshire], "gave the manor of Baginton, in Warwhichshire, in Frank marriage at the Churche dore, with Letice his daughter, unto Geffrey Savage, the day that he married her." "Of the first Geffrey Savage" adds Dugdale, "this is all I find, viz., that he is mentioned in the Sheriff's account of five Henry II, as also that 31 Henry II, Thomas de Arden has suites with him for two hides of land in this country; that he had isue Helias and Geffrey." Sir Geffrey le Savage, who appears to have died in 1190 (1 Richard I), was by his wife Letice (née Arden or Arderne), the father of John, Lord of Stainesby, Helias who died without issue, Sir William, Earl of Ulster, and Geffrey.
