Notes for: Dorothy Place

This family comes from An History of Richmondshire, in the North Riding of the County of York; together with those parts of the Everwicschire of Domesday which form The Wapentakes of Lonsdale, Ewecross, and Amunderness, in the Counties of York, Lancaster, and Westmoreland, by Thomas Dunham WHITAKER. London: Longman, Hurst, Rees (and others), 1823. 2 volumes. It says the first three generations "are not sufficiently proved." Here is the info given there on this family:

Dorothy, daughter of John Place, of Halneby, Co. York, Esquire, and co-heir of her mother.... daughter (I wonder if this was supposed to be 'wife') and co-heir of Thomas Surtees, of Dynsdale, in Com. Pal. Dun, Esquire.

I can't tell by Whitaker's system which wife Dorothy is. The Pearson family book has her as the second wife. I'll go with that.
