General Notes
- This Randle de Torhaunt must have been Randle le Roter, Lord of Thornton, who became possessed of the Manor of Thornton and is stated by Collins to have been a son of David le Clerk, Secretary to Randle Blundeville, Earl of Chester. Randle assumed the name of le Roter, and also of Thornton from his place of residence, and is sometimes designated by both.
  Randle Thornton died before the 28th of Henry III, having married Amicia, daughter of Richard Kingsley and his wife Joan, daughter and co-heiress of Alexander Sylvester, Lord of Stourton and Forester of Wirral.
  ---
  I had him as son of Peter de Thronton, so in the light of that and the above, have made him son of Peter, son of David le Clerc.
