The above is the early part of the Thoresby pedigree entered by
Sir W. Dugdale. According to the researches made by ~Jr. A. S.
Ellis (see Thoresby Soc. Miscellanea,v ol. ix, 112) it is manifestly
incorrect, though the antiquary was only seven years old at the
11,9
time, he is not responsible for it.
Mr. Ellill considers it doubtful if Ralph Thoresby (VII) ever
existed. The branch at West Cottingwith had been there for
some generations and left their wills, three of which are copied
by Mr. Ellis. He thinks it probable that it descends from John,
a second son of George Thoresby (II).
