In the pedigree of Percy, by Bishop Percy {Collins, edit. 1779, vol. ii, p. 373), it is stated that Eleanor, 1st da. of Henry, Earl of Northumberland, is mentioned in her father's will, dated I Nov. 36 Hen. VI, as unmarried, and that she afterwards m. Reynold West, Lord la Warre. This, and Blore's statement {Rutland, p. 100) that the same Eleanor was wife of Richard, Lord la Warre, are both obviously erroneous. C^) "Kateryne Lady la Warre" is mentioned in the will, dated 8 Aug. 1476, of "Margarete Lady Hungerford and Botreaux," as "myne owne doughter." («) "Ricardus West de la Warre miles."

IFilts'] filius predictorum Ricardi et Katerine est ejus filius et heres pro- pinquior et est etatis triginta duorum annorum et amplius." (Ch. Inq. p. m., II, vol. 10, nos. 98, 99: Exch. Inq. p. m., II, file 959, nos. 4, 9). (6) The writs from 22 Edw. IV to I Hen. VIII were erroneously directed Ricardo JVest chivaler, Ricardo West militi, or Ricardo West de la IVarre chivaler. In I Hen. VIII the error was corrected. There is proof in the Rolls of Pari, of his sitting.
