[DIRECT ANCESTOR OF THE COMPILER: flag added 2 Nov 2026 by walking the tree from Aynsley, so that this marker is reliable and can be searched.] ||2 Nov 2026|| Leycester's Savage descent (Ormerod I pp.526-7) gives Sir John Savage senior (1422-1495) × Katherine Stanley a daughter 'Ellen Savage ... married Peter Legh of Lyme ... 1467', by licence dated in the 4th year of Paul II - the same pope and the same name as Peter Warburton's dispensation. Either two Ellens or a confusion between the Legh and Warburton marriages; Ellen Warburton's father therefore stays unplaced.
