• Notes

  Richard was offered a knighthood about 1616 which he refused. He "held land of the crown (or rather of the Earl of Chester) on his death". His heir was his grandson, Richard, who had just turned 12 years of age the previous October. Ther Richard had taken guardianship of his granson, Richard when his son Richard die. In 1616, an agreement was written that the younger Richard would marry a Baskerville daughter at age 21 in return for money and property. This, however, never occurred for reasons unknown. It would have meant a social step up for the elder Richard and does indicate that he was moving up in the world. (C-2272) n
