( a ) " The name of Robert de Harington occurs regularly in the summones to Pari, from 1 Bic II. (1377) to 3 Sep. i Hen. V. (1417) ; but as Robert, the last Baron, died in 1405, and as John, Baron Harington is stated in the rolls of Pari. [vol. iii, pp. 582 and 5S3] to have been present on the 22 Dec. (8 Hen. IV.) 1406, it may be inferred that all the writs after the 7 Hen. IV. were directed to this Baron, and that the christian name of Robert on the rolls after that year was an error." [Nicolas.] ( b ) "New Minster Cartulary" Surtecs Soc- pp. 294, 297, as quoted in Halliday's " Porloek monuments " alluded to at p. 168, note " a." ( c ) There is proof in the rolls of Pari, of his sitting. ( d ) See the description of the beautiful monument there, which by many proofs is shewn to be his, in the " Porloek monuments " alluded to at p. 168, note " a." (') " The name Margaret as wife of the Baron is inscribed on a bell in Urswieu church, co. Lane, as of then- joint gift. She is not to be confused with Margaret Neville, wife of Sir William Harington, of Hornby Castle, K.G." [who was slain at Agincourt.] See " Porloek Monuments" as above, and see also "Coll. Top cl Ocn." VIII. 73, in which last, it is added (by Mr. Townsend) that " Glover and Vincent agree that his wife was the da. of Hugh Courtenay, Earl of Devon, which I believe. This however is not only not proved but is, if it refers to Earl Hugh, 1310 to 1377, chronologically almost impossible. See a ped. of this Hornby branch of Harington " in Howard's "Mis. Gen. el Her., vol. iii, N.S. p. 271." (0 He was s. and h. ap. of William (Bouville) Lord Bonville de Chuton (2d husband of Elizabeth, Baroness Harington) by Margaret his first wife, but was slain v.p. The Btyle of "Lord Harington, senior" seems to have been given him (Jure uxoris defuncku) as the father of the actual Lord, the "Lord Harington, junior."
