Misc. Notes
Information from Cynthia Glover (nee Coleman), whose great-great-grandfather was William Samuel Allen b.1843. (William's sister, Martha Allen, married Charles Oliver, youngest son of James and Ruth Oliver).

Michael Stanhope's in his 2007 "The History of the Stanhope Family", writes Richard married his cousin once removed, Ellota de Longvilliers and they had three children:
1. Sir Richard Stanhope, 1300 - 1370
2. Robert de Stanhope, 1303 - 1349
3. William de Stanhope, 1305 - 1354

Michael writes, "The first of the name Stanhope we find holding lands in Stanhope was Richard de Stanhope, the son of Walter de Stanhope, who died seised of a messuage of 22 acres of land in the fifth year of Bishop Bury, 1338-1339, charged with a mark yearly to Peter de Stanford. In the ninth year of Bishop Hatfield, 1354, one of this family, William, died seised of 24 acres of land and 15 acres he had acquired of Robert Featherstonhalgh, and left a daughter, Margaret de Stanhope, his heir, after which period we do not find any of the Stanhopes named in the records".
