Notes

http://www.family.emmiller.com/millerfamilytree/languages/en/person...

John Ormond married, 1485, Joan Chaworth, born about 1463, only daughter of Sir William Chaworth of Wiverton. On the death of her childless cousin Sir Thomas Chaworth in 1483, Joan was heiress to the manors of Medbourne

(Leicestershire), Marnham (Nottinghamshire) and Alfreton. Sir Thomas had been married to John Ormond's first cousin Margaret Talbot daughter of the 2nd Earl of Shrewsbury and Elizabeth Butler, sister of the 5th, 6th and 7th Earls of Ormond). It was likely through the influence of his Talbot relations that John Ormond's marriage to the Chaworth heiress was secured.
