Burke's Commoners, Volume 3, P 694 shows William had Geoffrey "GM" of Masham, and Henry of Bolton. He then discusses ONLY Henry of Bolton "HB" who married to Margaret De Roos, daughter of Lord de Roos; further that HB had sons Richard, William and Stephen. In the case of HB's sons, Richard succeeded William, and Stephen died without children.
Refer to Burke's Extinct Peerage for GM. GM, he states had a son, Henry "GMH", referred to here as the 1st Baron of Masham, who had sons Geoffrey, Henry, Richard (Archbishop of York) and Stephen. Henry being an Esquire in the Army 1360, Geoffrey succeeding, and then Stephen surviving his brother Geoffrey.
