The Visitation of the County of Nottingham In the Years 1569 and
1614, edited by G.W. Marshall 1871, Publications of the Harleian
Society, vol. 4, p. 145. Sir Richard Willoughby of Willoughby Knight
on of the Justices of the Comon Bench.
B. Burke 1888, The Complete Peerage, p. 1118. Willoughby lineage:
1) Richard Bugg, Lord of Willoughby-upon-the-Wold
2) Sir Richard Bugg (d. 1324); assumed name of Willoughby; purchased
Wollaton 1317 from Sir Roger de Mortein
The marriage of this Richard with Issabell Mortein, daughter of Roger
Mortein, strongly suggests that he is synonymous with Sir Richard
Bugg, which is here accepted. Also note that Burke gives a
subsequent Richard (identified here as the son of this Richard) as
the father of Edmond and Hugh.
