I cannot figure out this entry
"http://users.qconline.com/~kemmy/book/kemmis03.html#ralph4
In 1324, the Manor of Cokeham in Sumpting, (38) Sussex, and the advowson of
the hospital of St. Anthony annexed thereto, were settled by fine upon Ralph
and his wife Elizabeth for life, and on their son Ralph for life, remainder to
their grandson John, and on failure of his issue to his sisters Margaret and
Isabella and their heirs in succession, remainder to the right heirs of Ralph."

How can Ralph, by his second wife Elizabeth already have a grandson by her ?
The above definitely says "their grandson" not "his grandson"
