Earwarker's "East Cheshire Past and Present" (as cited for Laurence Warren of Poynton) is explicit that all fourteen of Laurence Warren's children were issue of Margaret Legh. Given that Laurence Warren married Margaret Leigh July 5, 1494 (appr. age eighteen), how is it possible that Sir Edward Warren was born in 1488?? Given that Laurence Warren married secondly Sybil Honford circa 1525, how is it possible that Sybil Honford could be the mother of an individual born circa 1498??
