8. SIR JOHN11 STANLEY (SIR JOHN10, SIR THOMAS9, SIR JOHN8 DE STANLEIGH, K.G., WILLIAM7, JOHN6, WILLIAM5, WALTER4, WILLIAM3, ADAM2, LIULF1 (LYDULPH)) was born Abt. 1447 in of Elford, Staffordshire, and died 1508. He married ANNE HANFORD, daughter of SIR ROBERT HANFORD.
Notes for SIR JOHN STANLEY:
Sir John held the Manor of Elford from the King (as Earl of Chester) by military service. In October 1485 Henry Tudor is said to have slept at his house (believed to be Haselour Hall) at Elford on his way from Lichfield to Bosworth Field.
"In 1491 Sir John was involved in a law suit with his younger half-brother Sir Humphrey Stanley regarding the division of their late father's estates. Sir William Stanley of Holt, Denbighshire (the younger brother of Thomas Stanley, 1st Earl of Derby) was appointed in his capacity of Lord Chamberlain to act as arbitrator in the dispute. It was agreed that Sir Humphrey who had been given the manor of Stratfold with land in Tamworth by his father in 1474 should be awarded the additional estates of Pipe and Clifton Campville in Staffordshire with grants of land in Campden in GLS and in NRTH for life."
When Sir John died he was commemorated in a window of St. Wilfred's Church at Northenden, Cheshire (which is destroyed by the Roundheads during the Civil War). He was described in the inscription as the one-time Lord of Pipe, Clifton Campville, and Elford in the County of Staffordshire; of Sibbertoft (near Market Harborough) Northamptonshire; and Camden super Wild, Gloucestershire; and especially of Eschells (in the Parish of Northenden), Alford and Nether Alderley in Cheshire. The estates of Pipe and Clifton Campville, with grants of lands in Camden, Gloucestership and Northamptonshire were awarded to his brother, Sir Humphrey, following a lawsuit in 1491. Sir John sold Alford and Nether Alderley in Cheshire to Sir William Stanley of Holt. As Sir John's only son predeceased him in 1470, he had no male heir and the Manor of Elford passed William Staunton, his daughter Margery's husband. (Source: Peter E. Stanley's book on the Stanleys, 1998)
