Notes
This pedigree is particularly valuable for its numerous collateral marriages into Yorkshire gentry and for the claimed Percy connection. The printed pedigree cites multiple manuscript witnesses and should be compared with the page images before extending the parent-child chain beyond the clearly labelled generations.
