Medieval times (Middle Ages) only lasted about 400 years from the Norman invasion - so, therefore, your 'expertise' would not be too relevant in the Leake/Leche/Chatsworth/Cavendish discussion. This took place in the much later Tudor era (which lasted about 100 years) - although Bess did died (1608) when the Stuarts had taken over! if you repond, make an effort to stay on point

It is a shame that the male line died out some time ago. I hope you have given your children old family Christian names instead, if you have them. Yes, the family names continue. There were numerous "branches" of the family. Quite a few of the Derbyshire ones now rest here - www.derbyshireheritage.co.uk/Menu/Buildi...misc/Eyre-Chapel.php

Honey, Have you read Mary S Lovell's book? If so, you'll have seen that at the back there are 29 PAGES of cross-referenced and indexed notes showing where she had obtained her research from (original documents / wills / birth-death-marriage records etc). This makes it easy for other hisorians to reference and verify her claims. Here is a link to just some of the EYRE papers (my ancestors) held in the National Archive - www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/A2A/records....mp;Gsm=2008-06-18#-1 Other documents are stored in Universities / private collections / local record offices / Public Record Office at Kew etc etc I am awaiting delivery of Mary Lovell's book. Thank you for the link to your ancestor's papers,ITK it is quite fascinating. It is a shame that the male line died out some time ago. I hope you have given your children old family Christian names instead, if you have them.

Watcher	Aren't you bitter ITK ?
