Circa 1488, Dacre eloped with Elizabeth Greystoke, 6th Baroness Greystoke (10 July 1471-14 August 1516), daughter of Sir Robert de Greystoke by Lady Elizabeth Grey, daughter of Edmund Grey, 1st Earl of Kent and Lady Katherine Percy. Dacre took her at night from Brougham Castle in Westmoreland where, as a ward of the King, she was in the custody of Henry Clifford, 10th Baron de Clifford.[4]

Elizabeth Dacre was the eldest granddaughter and heiress of Ralph de Greystoke, 5th Baron Greystoke. She had only recently succeeded her grandfather in the barony, but their marriage made Dacre the jure uxoris Baron Greystoke. The extensive lands held by the Greystokes passed to the Dacre family through this marriage. These included the castle and barony of Greystoke the castle and barony of Morpeth along with the lost manor of Henderskelf, which is now the site of Castle Howard.[4]

Thomas and Elizabeth had eight children:[5]

   Mabel Dacre (c. 1490–1533), married Henry Scrope, 7th Baron Scrope of Bolton.[5] They were parents of John Scrope, 8th Baron Scrope of Bolton and grandparents of Henry Scrope, 9th Baron Scrope of Bolton. The 9th Baron is better known because he was governor of Carlisle in the time of Elizabeth I of England, and as such took charge of Mary, Queen of Scots, when she crossed the border in 1568. He took her to Bolton Castle, where she remained till January 1569.
   William Dacre, 3rd Baron Dacre (c. 1493 - 18 November 1563),[5] married Lady Elizabeth Talbot, a daughter of George Talbot, 4th Earl of Shrewsbury and Lady Anne Hastings, by whom he had issue.
   Anne Dacre (c. 1500–between 16 Dec 1547 and 21 Apr 1548), married Christopher Conyers, 2nd Baron Conyers.[5] They were the parents of John Conyers, 3rd Baron Conyers.
   Mary Dacre (c.1502 - 29 March 1538), married her sister-in-law's brother, Francis Talbot, 5th Earl of Shrewsbury, a son of the before mentioned George Talbot, 4th Earl of Shrewsbury and Lady Anne Hastings.[5] They were parents of George Talbot, 6th Earl of Shrewsbury.
   Jane Dacre, wife of Lord Tailboys.[5]
   Hon. Humphrey Dacre.[5]
   Philippa Dacre.[5]

The title Baron Greystock (or Greystoke) has been created twice in the Peerage of England. It was first created when John de Greystock was summoned to parliament in 1295 and it became extinct on his death. It was next created for Sir Ralph de Greystock in 1321, and went into abeyance in 1569, after it had passed into the Dacre family through the marriage of Thomas Dacre, 2nd Baron Dacre to Elizabeth Dacre, 6th Baroness Greystoke.[1]
