time of the Domesday Survey; William de Greslei, his son was of Drakelow in the same parish, the present seat of the family. Sir Nicholas, the
sixth in descent from William, married the heiress of Wasteneys, of Colton
in Staffordshire, from whom this family inherited large possessions. George,
the seventh in descent from Sir Nicholas, was created a Baronet in 1611.

Esq. one of the Justices of the Common-pleas, in the reign of Elizabeth, a
native of Chester, where a younger branch of the Harpur family at that
time resided. Judge Harpur seated himself at Swarkston-hall, which had
belonged to the Rollestons; he married the heiress of Findern, of Finadern, by whom he had two sons, Sir John, ancestor of the Harpurs of
Swarkston, Breadsall, and Calke, and Sir Richard, ancestors of the

was created a Baronet in 1626. Sir John Harpur, his great-grandson, the
fourth baronet, married one of the coheiresses of Thomas Lord Crewe, of
Stean, (by his second wife, a coheiress of Armine.) The present and seventh
baronet, is Sir Henry, great-grandson of Sir John. In the year 1808, he
took the name of Crewe, by the King's sign-manual, in consequence of
his descent from Lord Crewe, as above-mentioned.
The elder branch of the Harpurs of Little-Over, became extinct by the
death of John Harpur, Esq., in 1754; the heiress married Heathcote. A
younger branch of the Harpurs of Little-Over, was settled for three descents

consequence of his marriage with Mary, elder daughter and coheir of Sir
Henry Leigh. Sir Henry, the third baronet, married one of the coheiresses
of Russel, of Strensham in Worcestershire, but left no issue either by her

baronet, in 1779, the elder branch became extinct, and the

Alvey. Henry his son, by her, was for his signal services in the battle of

passed the seals: he was described as of Clatercote in Oxfordshire. His
grandson William, being of Broadlow-Ash, near Ashborne in Derbyshire,
procured a renewal of the patent, although not with precedence from 1644.
His son Francis, who died in his father's life-time, married a coheiress of

Nicholas above-mentioned, was created a Baronet in 1783. He was succeeded,
in 1791, by his eldest son Anthony, and Sir

note, existed in the fourteenth century. (fn. 3) Hugh Bateman, Esq., the immediate descendant and representative of Hugh Bateman, who was baptized
at Hartington in 1554, was, in 1806, created a Baronet, with remainder, successively, to the male issue of his two daughters, since married to the eldest

Peers.
Kniveton, of Mercaston, 1611.—This ancient family, was originally
of Kniveton, whence they took their name. Sir Matthew Kniveton was
settled at Bradley in the reign of Edward I., and there the eider branch
continued till the early part of Charles I.'s reign, when it became extinct,
after a continuance of about fifteen generations. Matthew, a younger son of
Sir Matthew Kniveton above-mentioned, settled at Mercaston. Thomas,
the eighth in descent from Matthew, married a coheiress of Leche of Chatsworth. His son William, who was created a Baronet in 1611, married the
heiress of Rollesley of Rollesley-hall. Sir Gilbert, the second baronet, who
married the heiress of Gray, of Tanney in Hertfordshire, removed to Bradley after the extinction of the elder branch. Sir Andrew, the third baronet,
a zealous Royalist, having been much impoverished by the civil war, sold
Bradley and the greater part, if not the whole, of the family estates. Sir
Andrew had a younger brother, Thomas, and three sisters married to Sir
Aston Cokaine, Pegge of Yeldersley, and Henry Neville. We have not
been able to find when the title became extinct; but Collins, in his Baronet
age of 1720, says that Sir Thomas Kniveton, one of the Gentlemen P???sioners in the reign of Charles II. was supposed to have been the last
Baronet. This Sir Thomas continued to belong to the band of Gentlemen
Pensioners, in the early part of King William's reign, and was living in

Hugh, settled at Risley. The son of Hugh married the heiress of
Dabridgecourt, and his son, it appears, bore his mother's arms, (Ermine,
three bars humettee) which are engraved on his monument at Wilne, impaled with Clifton. Henry, the last heir male of this branch, was created
a baronet in 16II, during the life-time of his father, Sir John Willoughby,

sister and heiress married Gilbert Heathcote, whose grandson, Gilbert, took
the name of Rodes, and died in 1768. Cornelius, nephew of the latter,
