Notes:

                   Will dated 20 July 1598.  Henry Stanley died three days later, but his public funeral did not take place until three weeks later, on 16 August 1598.

Note: "The Complete Baronetage" states that Henry's wife's name was Mary.  But the Marriage record identifies her as Margaret.

Note: Some sources give Henry's birth as 1515.  However, his mother, Anne Hart, was married first to Edmund Talbot, who died in 1520, and she married Henry Stanley after that date.  This means that their first child was probably not born until about about 1523, which discredits the 1515 birth date.
