Présentation de l'éditeur
The HISTORY of the barons of Audley ;.who tells us that the barons of Audley built Healey-caftle, in the county of Stafford, upon lands given to them by Hervey de Stafford, as alfo A ldeleigh, by Thoebald de Verdon; and from thefe (fays he) fprung the family of the Stanleys, EARLS of DERBY, but gives no pedigree or lineal defcent thereof. And though this account from fo public an author might be efteemed by fome very honourable, as being related to, or defcended from a family which made one of the greateft figures in the nation for fome ages; yet methinks as the noble Houfe of Stanley hath produced fo many brave and gallant perfons both in peace and war, the ORIGINAL thereof demands a more particular enquiry and defcription than Mr. Cambden hath thought fit to beftow upon them, who appears to me to have taken the relation given us of this moil worthy family more upon truft, and the credit of others, than any labour or acquired knowledge of his own.
