Notes for Thomas Leigh
Is he descended from the Leghs of Adlington, Cheshire who were descended from the Stanleys via a few Savages of Clifton, Kent? See Weis, Mag Chart Sureties, 5th edn, Line 106, pp. 139-140. Ans: Very definitely yes, from Burke's Commoners of c. 1826, and from the Cheshire Visitations.
