Robert Percy and 2 Daughters About 1559. these 4 Children were in the time of Troubles in Queen Elizabeths Days sent out of the North in Hampers to old Dame Vaux at Haraden in Northamptonshire and there were brought up preserved and provided for Therefore it is concluded by all that Sir Ingelram's Lady the Mother of those Children must be related to Dame Vaux's Family The Countess Dowager of Dorset Pembrook and Mountgomery said That if the Claimant James Percy were her Kinsman he must be descended of those Children that were sent into the South in Hampers Note There were but few Coaches in those days Margaret that married the first Earl of Cumberland whom the Countess of Dorset descended from was Sir Ingelram Percie 's own Sister And while the Claymant was with this Lady enquiring and delivering Declarations in Ejectment the Estate was all begg'd as his printed Book makes appear more at large That which wildernized the Claymant was the rending the matchings of the Percies out of the Herald's Book and likewise the Herald-painter left Sir Ingelram quite out of the first Pedegree Henry the eldest Son of Sir Ingelram marryed the Daughter of one Tibott by whom he had Issue 1. James Percy who dyed about the year 1654. in Ireland without Issue-male 2. William who died young 3.

Anthony Percy married and hath a Son viz. Henry 2. Henry 3. John UPon a tripartine Exchange the Countries from Trent Sir W. Churchil's History fel. 257. to the North-ward was the Lot of the Percies in Memory whereof the same being in the Georgraphical Form of an Malf-moon Crescent for their Cognizance A short Abstract of the fore-going Narrative co-temporizing down from Henry the 5th Earl of Northumberland who had as before the following Issue 6th Earl of Northumberland Henry eldest Son who dyed without Issue Thomas second Son had two Sons both Earls Sir Ingelram Percy third Son had two Sons viz. 7th and 8th Earls Thomas and Henry first Cousins unto Henry Robert 9th Earl Henry and his Bretheren second Cousins unto James Henry 10th Earl Algernon and his Brother third Cousins unto James 11th Earl Joscelin fourth Cousin unto Anthony Henry John The Lady Elizabeth Percy married to the Lord Ogle 5th Cousin unto Henry This may satisfie all wise Men of the Truth of this Pedigree As for the Claymant James Percy he doth acknowledge the mistake of claiming under Sir Richard Percy who was born Anno 1573. And James Percy who was Unckle and Godfather to the Claymant was born 1581. So by this Account Sir Richard must have been a Grandfather at 8 years of Age. This is an impossible thing indeed But here lies the Mystery and the very Truth of this matter and it was his Councels advice to fix upon a wrong party which said they would be the only way to find out the right party For the Matches of the Percies was rent out of the Heralds book and Sir Ingelram Percie 's Name was quite left out of the first Pedegree which wildernized the Claymant and the Councels too which forced the Claymants Councel to tell the Lords in Parliamant that the Cause did not lie before their Lordships but ought to be tryed before the inferiour Courts first and if the Law could not end it then it was to return and come before their Lordships again to debate and to determine Since which time it hath been found out by a Verdict at Law that James Percy is the Legitimate Son of Henry Percy and Lidia his Wife And upon Petitions as in the printed Book may appear The Kings Most Excellent Majesty hath graciously condescended that the Lords in Parliament shall determine the said Cause It is hoped that this just account will abate
