Maurice Fitzjohn, 1st Knight of Kerry

I follow [Burkes Peerage] here, which disagrees with [JRSAI, 1869-73]:

Maurice Fitzjohn, 1st Knight of Kerry,
had issue:

Richard Fitzmaurice, 2nd Knight of Kerry.
Knighted between 1330 and 1345.
Keeper of the Peace in Fermoy, Co Cork, 1347 and 1356.
He had issue:

1. Maurice Fitzrichard, 3rd Knight of Kerry.
   He had issue:
   1. Nicholas Fitzmaurice, 5th Knight of Kerry.

   He also had illegitimate issue:

   1. Richard Fitzgerald.
      Ancestor of Fitzgerald, Seneschal of Imokilly,
      and of Fitzgerald of Cloyne.
