• Notes

  1. Richard de Bayly, later Sherburne of Stonyhurst (b 12.10.1381, d 29.05.1441) The family book used as a source for this page identifies Richard's wife as Agnes (bur 03.11.1444), dau of William Stanley of Hooton. Thanks to a contributor (SK, 17.03.17) for advising us that this was probably following a 19th century researcher who "misinterpreted Agnes Shireburn's will" and that Richard's wife was in fact ... m. Agnes Harrington (dau of Sir Nicholas Harrington of Farleton by Isabel English) The 1437 will of Richard Sherburne was published in TESTAMENTA EBORACENSIA Part II, at 75-76, in vol. 30 (1855) of PUBLICATIONS OF THE SURTEES SOCIETY. After bequests to the parish church of Mitton and to religious orders, he left the residue of his estate "to Agnes my wyffe," and named "Robert of Haryngton, knyght, Thomas of Harington, squyer, brother of ye same Robert," among his executors. No one surnamed Stanley is mentioned. The identity of Agnes (Harington) Sherburne was the topic of an article on the Soc. Gen. Med. newsgroup (http://groups.google.com/group/soc.genealogy.medieval) on 24 May 2004 by Douglas Hickling, building on work reported by Douglas Richardson in the recent Plantagenet Ancestry (2004, p. 678). Many sources show Agnes as a Stanley, but Hickling has shown that she was the daughter of Sir Nicholas Harrington A marriage contract was made 4th Aug 1391 between Richard Sherburne and Agnes Harington.
