Notes and Queries-1927-RANSFORD-311-3: "At this date cousins of the Clifford Rainsfords were living at Warwick, for in 1562 we learn from the State Papers that Nicholas Rainsford refused to be Captain in one of Queen Elizabeth's expeditions to France, saying he was servant to Lord Warwick. He was the son of John and Alice. This John was at one time Gentleman Usher to Henry VIII, and later servant to Ambrose Dudley, Master of the Horse. His wife, Alice, was maid of honour to Anne Boleyn and at one time held an appointment at Sheen. The son of Nicholas was Edward, b. 1579, who, on the death of Sir Fulke Greville's cousin Robert, slain at Lichfield 1643, (husband of Catherine Russell, eldest daughter of Francis, Earl of Bedford, was by him appointed Deputy Recorder and Town Clerk of Warwick."

From whom descend the Rainsfords of Northhamptonshire.
