| (1) Visitation (Cheshire, 1580, Winington of Winington) starts with Sir Richard Winington of Winington (a 1398) father (by Agnes) of Robert of Winington (father of Richard of Winington & Nicholas of Birches) and of Hugh (m. Cicely Haslington, heiress of the Hermitage) & Richard of Leftwich. We follow Ormerod who shows the connections between the branches quite differently. (2) Ormerod spells the name of the main line as "Wyninton of Wyninton" and that of Northwich sometimes as "Winington". We keep to "Winnington" for simplicity's sake. |
