  • Notes 
    • Questions regarding Emma's parentage

      In the book "The House of Stanley"by Peter Edmund Stanley (Edinburgh: The Pentland Press, 1998), Stanley states that a Charter dated 13 Feb 1310 (no further identification given) given at Sefton in Lancashire endows John (Stanley) with the manors of Stanleigh and Over Elkeston in Staffordshire to be held by the said John and his wife Emma. The witnesses were: Sir Robert de Lathom of Lathom and Knowsley, Sir Ralph Bykerstaffe (Sheriff of Lancashire), Alan Norris of Formby and Speke, Thomas de Osbaldeston, William Blundel and Roger de Haverburgh.

      Stanley suggests Emma may have been a Molyneux because of the location of the Charter, but ultimately decides she was a daughter of Sir Robert de Lathom, because when John Stanley's grandson Sir John Stanley married Isabel de Lathom in 1385, a papal dispensation was obtained owing to the prohibitive degree of consanguinity "third cousins once removed" (Ormerod).
