General Notes

REFN: 9841AN
Note: think that we must keep in mind information shown in the Pedigr
ee of Sherburne, of Stonyhurst, set forth between pages572 and 573 in HIST
ORY OF THE COUNTY PALATINE AND DUCHY OFLANCASTER, by Edward Baines. This p
edigree can be found on-lineatwww.heskethbank.com/history/baines/images/ba
ines_sherburne,jpg.
The Sherburne pedigree identifies "Margaret, sister of Robert de Hollan
d" as the wife of "Sir John Blakeburne." They are shown as the paren
ts of "Alicia de Blackburne" and of "Jordan de Bayley."Alicia is sho
wn to have married Sir Robert Sherburne. It also shows that their daught
er Katherine Sherburne married "Sir John Tempest of Bracewell, 27 ED. I
II 27." Since Edward III's reign began in 1327, it would appear that eith
er this marriage occurred in 1354 or that this Sir John Tempest was sti
ll activei n 1354.
According to Henry Sutliff, in a post to SGM 11 Feb 2002, John & Margar
et had the following:
1. Alice, wife of Sir Robert Shireburne
2. Agnes (dsp), wife of (1) Sir Henry de Lea and (2) Robert deHorncliffe
3. Joan, wife of Sir Thomas Arderne
Note: Henry Sutliff, citing VCH Lancs, vol II, does not mention Jord
an de Bayley. In fact it looks to me that Jordan de Bayley (who might ha
ve been b. c1300) might be better placed as son of Alice de Blackburn & Ro
bert Sherburne. Alice held the manor of Aighton Bailey in dower (whi
ch is where I assume the name Bayley came from), and Robert Sherburne w
as of Stoneyhurst (although that might be from his wife Alice).
