| (1) Commoners reports that "About the year 1520, the Manleys removed from Cheshire to Erbistock, in Denbighshire, and resided there for about two hundred years, on a property which still belongs to the family". Ormerod, used for the continuation, ends with the following William & Elizabeth except to show them as parents of a Thomas. Earwalker, also used for the continuation, does the same except to show Thomas as father of 2 daughters. (2) Commoners identifies the arms of the later generations as "Arg. a dexter hand couped and erect sa. within a bordure engr. of the last". |
