This was repeated by Leach Rixford.Leach Rixford, Elizabeth M.

'''Walter Devereux, Father of Sibil'''
According to the Complete PeerageThe Complete Peerage. Vol. V: Eardley of Spalding to Goojerat. 1926, pp 321-324 [https://archive.org/details/CokayneG.E.TheCompletePeerageSecondEditionVolume5EAGO/page/n171/mode/2up Archive.org]. the first Devereux to be Lord Ferrers was Sir Walter Devereux (c1432-1485), son of Sir Walter Devereux (1411-1459) and Elizabeth Merbury. He married first before 26 Nov 1446 Anne, daughter of William de Ferrers of Chartley.
The Stemmata ShirleianaShirley, E P. Stemmata Shirleiana, or the Annals of the Shirley Family. 1873, p 104 [https://archive.org/details/cu31924029787250/page/n125/mode/2up Archive.org]. noted Sibyl as the daughter of Sir Walter Devereux and Elizabeth Merbury, while RichardsonRichardson, D. Magna Carta Ancestry, 2nd Edition, Vol. II, 2011, p 163. placed Sibyl as the daughter of Sir Walter Devereux, Lord Ferrers, and Anne Ferrers.
If Sir Walter Devereux, Lord Ferrers, was Sibil's father then Sibil would presumably have been born at the earliest c 1446. However the IPM for Sir James Baskerville indicates his eldest surviving son Walter Baskerville was born around 1459, and the IPM for Walter Baskerville indicates that his mother was Sibil Devereux. Hence the dates are rather constrained for Sibil Devereux to have been a daughter of Sir Walter Devereux, Lord Ferrers.
