The following is taken from the PDF file called "HESS/NICKSONFAMILY HISTORY: THE MAGNA CARTA, Part 2" Our British Ancestors THE MAGNA CARTA, Part 2
The first chapter covered our direct ancestors who were Magna Carta Sureties. They were Robert de Vere and Saer de Quincy. Time now to fill in the gaps between these gentlemen and those "Gateway" relatives I included in a spread sheet in an earlier chapter titled "THE COLONISTS:
Forward To The Past." It starts with a son of Robert and a daughter of Saer. Here are names included in this file:
Elizabeth Talbot (1502-1581) who married Sir John Lyttleton (1502-1590). He was made constable of Dudley Castle and keeper of the old and new parks there in 1553.
He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth I at Kenilworth in 1566. He was a member of the Council of Wales and the Marches, a Deputy Lieutenant and Justice of the Peace for
Worcestershire. Elizabeth and John had three sons.
Robert (aka Roger) Lyttleton (also spelled Littleton) (1519-1601). Robert appears to be the eldest son, but, for reasons I am still researching, his younger brother John
inherited the lands and title. This is apprently where a "fall from grace" ended our chances for lands and titles. Robert married Elizabeth Stanley in 1534, and they had
children.
Robert, his wife and parents are mentioned in the book: "The Royal Descents of 600 Immigrants" on page 335.
Robert married Elizabeth Stanley. (Elizabeth Stanley was born in 1513 in England, died in Dec 1678 in Middletown, CT and was buried in Unknown.)
