Children:
1. Adam De STANLEY
Adam
De STANLEY
Born: ABT 1125, Leek, Staffordshire, England
Died: 1200
Notes: Adam de Stanley was born circa 1125, and he possibly
was the brother (or brother in law) of Lydulph de Aldithley, who
was born circa 1115. They were both thanes (the early equivalent to knights)
and they held the freehold tenancies of their respective estates in Staffordshire
from the Norman De Verdun family by socage, i.e. military service,
which required them to defend their Overlord and his possessions. Lydulph
held Aldithley and Balterley, whereas Adam held Talk on the Hill.
It is unlikely that either held a surname during their actual lifetime.
Surnames were introduced into England by the Normans, but they were still
rare at the time of the Great Survey in 1086, when only the more important
barons used them. These surnames were generally derived from their Normandy
estates. The minor barons and knightly families began adopting surnames
during the 12th century and these were generally derived from their new
English estates.

Notes: The marriage of William to Joan has become
one of Cheshire's legends. The story relates that Sir Phillip and
his wife Lettice, were being entertained at a banquet given at Stourton
in Cheshire. A marriage had been arranged for Joan (who was her
father's heir) with the son of his wife (who was Joan's stepmother).
She had no liking for that marriage, and while the festivities were at
their height, she slipped out of the Hall to where William De Stanley
was waiting with saddled horses. Together they galloped to Astbury where
they were wed in the Church by William's uncle, John De Stanley,
William
saying: "Joan, I plight thee my troth to take and hold thee as my lawful
wife until my life's end", and she replying, "I, Joan, take thee
William, as my lawful husband". In 1284, on the death of his wife's
father, William De Stanley acquired the hereditary office of Master
Forester of Wirral together with the Manor of Stourton and the bailiwick
of Wirral. In 1306 and 1307, he is mentioned as Hereditary Forester of
Wirral. In the year 1316, by grant of Edward II, he assumed the
Armorial Bearings, viz. 'Arg, on a bend asure, three Stags Head, cabossed,
Or', in place of those previously borne by his ancestors. These arms are
carried by his descendants to this day.

Sir
John STANLEY , Sheriff of Anglesey St19

Died: 27 Nov 1437, Anslesey, Wales
Notes: Knight
of the Garter. Constable of Carnarvon, Justice of Chester. Steward
of Macclesfield; Lord of Man. The house of Stanley came into possession
of the Island in 1406, and as it appears to us essential to give a summary
account of this little kingdom from the period of their accession, we shall
proceed to do so in as concise a manner as the subject demands. In the
year 1493, the Earl of Salisbury, then King of the Island, sold
it, with his crown and title of King, to Sir William Le Scrope.
rfhe deed of sale runs thus :— "Sir William Le Scroop bought of William
Montacute, Earl of Salisbury, the Isle of Man, with the title of King,
and the right of being crowned with a golden crown"
Sir Wm. Le Scrope,
afterwards Earl of Wiltshire, was found guilty of high treason and
beheaded, when Henry Percy, Earl of Northumberland, was granted
the Island by King Henry IV, and he also having been attainted,
was deprived of it by act of Parliament, and the Island was ordered to
be seized for the King’s use; but seven years afterwards it was granted
by the King to Sir John Stanley, his heirs and successors,
under the title of King.

Notes: Knight
of the Garter. Succeeded his father in Mann and his other estates in
1432. He had been knighted some years before his father's death. In the
same year he was appointed Lieutenant of Ireland for six years, and shortly
afterwards Comptroller of the King's Household. During the first year of
his rule in Ireland he called together a Parliament for the redress of
grievances; but, being called to England by the King's command soon afterwards,
that kingdom fell into great disorder, and he was obliged to return to
it in 1435, when he successfully repressed a serious revolt. In 1441 he
was appointed one of the Lieutenant justices of Chester, at a salary of
£40 per annum. He was one of the Commissioners who treated with the
Scotch for a truce in 1448, and, when it was concluded, he became one of
its conservators. He also served on a commission for the custody and defence
of the town and castle of Calais from 1450 to 1455. During the year 1451
he held the office of sole Judge of Chester, and in 1452 he was commissioned
to treat for a new truce with Scotland. In 1456 he was summoned to the
House of Peers as Baron Stanley, being made Lord Chamberlain of the King's
Household, and, in the following year, one of the Council of Edward,
Prince of Wales. He was again appointed one of the Ambassadors to treat
with the Scotch in 1460, "but, dying the latter end of the year, the
nation was deprived of this very great and valuable person, and the King
of one of his best subjects... He was brave in the field, wise in
the Senate, just to his Prince, an honour to his country, and an ornament
to his family". He married Joan, daughter and heiress of Sir
Robert Goushill, by whom he had issue three sons, Thomas, William,
and John; and three daughters.

Second son, Sir William supported the house of York in the Battle
of Blore Heath in 1459. In 1461, Edward IV made Sir William Stanley
the Chamberlain of Chester and Sheriff of Flintshire. He fought for the
Yorkists at Hexham in 1466 and was given the Lordship and Castle of Skipton
in Yorkshire which he subsequently exchanged for Chirk. He obtained additional
land following the battle of Towton. After the battle of Tewkesbury in
1471 he took the news to
Queen Margaret of her son's death and then
took her to Coventry.
Edward IV's successor, Richard III, courted Sir
William's support by various grants of manors and by appointing him
Chief Justice for North Wales and Chief Commissioner for Shropshire. Sir
William was suspicious of Richard because of the disappearance
of the two princes and changed his allegiance to Henry
Tudor. At the Battle of Bosworth
Field, Stanley rescued Henry
at a critical moment in the battle, struck down the King and is
said to have found his crown in a thorn bush. He handed the crown to his
elder brother Thomas who put it on the head of
Henry
Tudor. Henry
VII appointed Sir William Stanley the Lord Chamberlain
and Knight of the Garter and granted him additional lands that made him
the richest commoner in England. Sir William's wealth and power
inevitably attracted enemies and he was disappointed that his services
had not led to a peerage. In 1489 he became Constable of Caernarvon and
Beaumaris, and in 1490 Henry
VII gave him the Lordships of Bromfield, Chirk and the castles
of Dinas Bran, Holt and Chirk in confirmation ofearlier grants of the latter
two by Richard III.
Sir William as Lord Chancellor was arbitrator in the dispute
between Sir John Stanley of Elford and his half-brother Sir
Humphrey, mentioned above. He then bought the manors of Aldford and
Nether Alderley in Cheshire from Sir John. Sir William was
arrested and imprisoned in the Tower of London in 1494, on suspicion of
being involved in the rebellion of
Perkin
Warbeck, who claimed to be the younger of the "princes in the
tower" and therefore heir to Edward IV. At that time it was not
known that the sons of Edward IV had both been murdered. Although
Sir
William had helped put Henry
VII on the throne he was known to have been a strong supporter
of Edward IV. He was quoted as saying that if Perkin
Warbeck was the son of Edward IV he would not fight
against him. This, and his unwillingness to confirm or deny his guilt,
was sufficient to see him executed at the Tower on 16 Feb 1495.

Notes: of Tong Castle. The Vernons held Stackpole until the death
of Sir George Vernon in 1565. He too left two daughters, one of
whom, Margaret, married Thomas Stanley, second son of Edward,
Earl of Derby. After Thomas' death in 1576, Stackpole was divided
between their son Edward and the widowed Margaret, who took
a second husband,
William Mather. It is doubtful whether Edward,
whose main residence was Tong Castle in Shropshire, ever resided at Stackpole
for any considerable period of time. In 1597 he demised his lands in Stackpole
to William Ingleby, and there is every possibility that he was leasing
them out before then. A family arrangement was made whereby Edward
was to inherit half of the joint property of William and
Margaret
Mather upon his mother's death, and the other half after the death
of his step-father, which occurred on 30 Nov 1607. As an outlying property
situated far from his other estates Stackpole was of little interest to
him, so a year later he disposed of it to Roger Lort, who had for
some time been both an agent and a tenant of his mother in the Stackpole
district. |
