Notes

• "Matilda is listed as the daughter of Henry de Erdington in 2nd hand sources, one being information submitted by J.H.Lawrence Lawler to www.ancestry.com. He gives her location as of Erdington, Shropshire, England and his source as a book entitled, "Lee of Virginia" by Edmund Jennings Lee, c1895 and in print again in 2001. I have Erdington located in Shawbury, England at the time. This was land owned by the Henry I have connected her to. He is the only Henry I have been able to find in this time period and place. It is still a theory until I find confirmation that this couple had a daughter named Matilda. However, her name also supports this theory, as she would have been named after her father Henry's mother, Matilda. (F-438-440, E)" (Ancestrees website, 2012)
