Ralph Stafford (died 1385)

Sir Ralph Stafford (c. 1367 – July 1385)^[1] was a knight of the royal household of King Richard II of England. He was murdered in 1385 by the king's half-brother, John Holland. One modern historian has suggested that Ralph was the closest friend the young King Richard II had at court; they were the same age and Ralph appears to have been "a bright and promising" courtier.^[1]
