Sir William de Brereton, heir to his father, by deed without date, receives from Randle de Torhaunt, later called Thornton, in frank marriage with his daughter Margery, all the rents which Thomas de Warin held from Peter de Torhaunt, father of the said Randle, in Middlewich Hundred. 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, and had a son Ranulph, who died sine prole, and 5 daughters: Amicia, Emma, Agnes, Joan and Margaret, of whom Amicia, the eldest, was mother of Margery Thornton, wife of William.
