• Notes

  "[Richard Fortescue] left three sons: the eldest, another Sir Richard, with whom we are not concerned, and two others both of whom were called Sir John. In the case of the first of the two Sir Johns, there was the singular coincidence that while he had a brother of his own name, he married Alice Montgomery, who had a sister of her own name. Genealogists would learn with relief that they died without issue." [John Morris, citation details below]
