  • Notes 
    • According to Knights of Edward I, ed. Rev, C Moor, The Harleian Society, (1929), Vol. I, p 39, William de Lea (b abt 1237) was Baron of Kendal.

      The early descent of this barony is well known from the Lords of Workington to William and then Gilbert de Lancaster. The Lancaster line ended in an heiress married to Gilbert fitz Roger FitzReinfrid who dies before 6 May 1220.

      Does anyone know how it came to William de Lea? William de Lea apparently married Clemence Banaster and had a daughter Sybil.
