notes

From page 311 of East Cheshire: Past and Present: Or, A History of the Hundred of ..., Volume 1 By John Parsons Earwaker "Wythenshawe"

In the chancel window of the old church at Bowdon, a few miles from Northenden, were formerly four shields of arms, placed there about the year 1590 or 1600 to commemorate the various alliances of the Tatton family. These were as follows

  • (1) Tatton impaling Davenport of Henbury ;tt
  • (2) Tatton impaling Booth of Dunham Massey ,-r
  • (3) Tatton impaling Fitton of Gawsworth ;w
  • (4) Tatton, with a label for eldest son, impaling Warren of Poynton.

This glass must have been placed in Bowdon church after 1583, when Robert Tatton married Eleanor, daughter of John Warren of Poynton, Esq., as commemorated in No. (4), and before 1611, when his father died, as he is distinguished as the eldest son by a label. These shields probably occupied the upper part of four out of the five lights of the chancel window, the middle light containing the arms of the Bishopric of Chester Gules three mitres Or.
