Barack's Harrington ascent

[wjhonson]

In the ancestry of Barack, last year I had pointed out that Leo is
missing details on that Anne Harrington who married Sir William
Stanley and by him had a son Peter Stanley of Bickerstaff, esq.

Anne was the "eldest daughter and co-heiress of her father" James
Harrington of Wolfage, Brixworth, Blackrod and Westlegh; Knt by his
wife Isabel Radcliffe.

I have ten of Anne's 16 great-grandparents, although two of them
(wives) are just first names.

16 Sir James Harrington (son of Nicholas of Farleton and Wolfage)
17 NN
18 Sir William Bradshaigh IPM 3H5
19 Johanna N
20 Sir Roger de Pilkington (d 2 Jan 1407)
21 NN
22 Sir John de Verdon (unknown parentage)
23 Matilda N
24 NN
25 NN
26 NN
27 NN
28 Nicholas Harrington of Farleton and Wolfage (father of 16 above)
29 Isabel English (mother of 16 above)
30 Sir Robert de Neville of Hornby Castle (d 4 Apr 1413)
31 Margaret de la Pole

From very old and somewhat uncritical notes, I have the following (the
last four, I think, derived from a Radcliffe account in Burkes Landed
Gentry):

17. Ellen Urswick
24. John Radcliffe of Ordsall
25. Margaret Trafford
26. Hugh Standish
27. Alice

I note that back in 2000, Mr. Richardson posted a differing
reconstruction of the Verdon/Pilkington connection, which also differs
from what is presented in VCH Herts. Unfortunately, a typo in the
accompanying dates makes it difficult to interpret (it shows a man
having his first child at about 76 and living to 127, which I am sure
was not the intent).
