DELVES, John (d.1394), of Doddington, Cheshire and Apedale, Staffs.
Family and Education
s. of Henry Delves (d.1395) of Doddington and Apedale. m. by 1374, Margaret, da. of David Calveley, ?4s. inc. John†, 3da.C136/87/20, 21. In his Palatine and City of Chester ed. Helsby, iii (pt. 1), 522, G. Ormerod gives a pedigree of the Delves family compiled from their archive by Sir William Dugdale, and modified in A. Collins, Baronetage, ii. 294. According to Dugdale, Delves was the child of his father’s first marriage to Katherine, the da. and h. of Sir John Ardern, and widow of both William Chetilton and Ralph Wetenal. Collins, on the other hand, believed that Katherine died childless, and that Henry Delves’s second wife, Margaret Brereton, was the MP’s mother, but this cannot now be proved. The number of Delves’s children must also remain a matter for conjecture, especially as Dugdale and Collins disagree on this point.
