Hi,

I have that Sir John Pilkington married Margaret de Verdun ca 1383.
Who was Margaret's parents and does she come down the same line as
John de Verdon (Lord of Westmeath) and Margery de Lacy?

Dear Newsgroup:

In my post below, I inadvertedly posted that Sir John de Verdun (Gen.
No. 4) was born in 1249 and died c. 1376. I meant to type he was born
on 24 January 1299 and died c. 1376.

The Verdun-Bradshagh-Pilkington descent below is ancestral to the
following immigrants:

1. Thomas Bressey

2. Elizabeth (Butler) Claiborne, of VA

3. Agatha (Eltonhead) Wormeley Chicheley, Martha (Eltonhead) Conway,
Alice (Eltonhead) Burnham Corbin Creyk, Jane (Eltonhead) Morison
Fenwick, and Eleanor (Eltonhead) Brocas Carter.

Did John Pilkington and Margery de Verdun have a daughter, Elizabeth,
who married a Sir William Atherton? If yes, I have a completely
unsubstantiated descent to Robert Abell if anyone's interested...

Thanks, Roger

Oliver Manwaring of New London, CT (1634-1723) also descends from the same
Sir William Atherton and Elizabeth Pilkington. Some of the documentation can
be found in VCH Lancs. Elizabeth Pilkington was daughter of a Sir John
Pilkington, but I have not yet researched the Pilkingtons to answer your
question.

Sir William Atherton of Atherton, Lancs. + Elizabeth Pilkington
Sir William Atherton (d. 1440) + Margaret Byron
Margery Atherton + John Ireland of Hale and The Hutt, Lancs. (d. 1462)
William Ireland (d.1503) + Eleanor Molyneux (supposedly of Sefton, Lancs.,
but cannot place her as yet)
Alice Ireland (d. 1536) + William Moore (d. 1541) of Bank Hall, Cheshire
Elizabeth Moore + Thomas Torbock (d. 1554) of Torbock, Lancs.
William Torbock (d. 1558) + Catherine Gerard
Margaret Torbock (1558-1643) + Oliver II Mainwaring (1559-abt 1608)
Oliver III Mainwaring (abt 1587-1671/2) + Prudence Esse
Oliver Manwaing of New London,. the immigrant

Do you know if Atherton Haugh (c. 1579-Sep 11, 1650), who married
Elizabeth Bulkeley and settled in Boston, was related to your Sir
William Atherton. I know nothing about Atherton Haugh's ancestry. He
was well educated though, and his son Samual Haugh was a minister.
