Text:   Sir Michael Stanhope's widow, Anne Rawson, 1516-20/2/1587, was the daughter of Nicholas Rawson of Avely, more anciently written Alveley, a small village near Purfleet on the Thames. 'Alured Rawson, citizen of London, and merchant of the Staple of Calais, was Lord of this Manor of Aveley in 1509. His son, Nicholas Rawson, 1470-1523, of Giddy Hall, Romford, Essex, married Beatrix Cooke, 1485-14/1/1554, daughter of Philip Cooke, 1452-1497, and Elizabeth Belnap,1450-1515, and left one daughter and heir, named Anne, who was married to Sir Michael Stanhope.' [The History of Essex, Rev. Philip Morant, pp. 76-78, 1768. See also Thoroton's Notts., by Throsby, vol. i., p. 290.] Alured, a.k.a Avery, Rawson was the son of Richard Rawson, obit. 1484, citizen and mercer of London, and Sheriff of London in 1478 and 1483, and Isabella Craford, obit.1497. [Wills Perogative Office.] They were buried at St. Mary Magdalen's, Old Fish Street. Richard Rawson was the son of Richard Rawson of Fryston and Cicely Paulden, a.k.a Baldein. Richard Rawson of Fryston was the son of Robert Rawson of Fryston, who lived temp. Rich. II., and Agnes Mares, daughter of Thomas Mares. The origin of the family can very probably be traced to the Saxon Ravenchil, later Ravenchild, who held three carucates of land in Shipley. [Domesday, Evriciscire, p. 381, col. i.] The later Rawsons were strongly connected to Shipley. [The Gentleman's Magazine, p. 179, 1790.] http://www.freewebs.com/stanhopefamily/
