Notes:

Nigel, First Baron Of Halton, was a cousin to Hugh Lupus, and was also made by him Constable of Chester, and Marshal of his forces, on condition that he should lead the van of his army, whenever he marched into Wales.â€” These great offices of Constable and Marshal were attached to the Barony, and enjoyed by his successors. William, son of the above Nigel, succeeded his father in his Barony and offices, which he enjoyed until the reign of King Stephen. This William had a daughter named Maude, who married Eustace, a Norman, by whom she had a son named Richard Fitz-Eustace, who after the decease of William, was by right of his mother, created Baron of Halton and Constable of Chester. He married Albreda de Lizours, daughter and heiress of Robert de Lizours, and sister- of Robert Lacy, Lord of Pontefract, by whom he had a son named Roger, who first assumed the name of Lacy for himself and his posterity. Lacy, Lord Pontefract dying without issue, all his possessions descended to his sister Albreda, and afterwards to his nephew Roger, son of Richard Fitz- Eustace and the said Albreda. This Roger is mentioned in ancient records, as having been Constable of Chester, when King Richard I took his journey to Syria; he also continued Constahble of Chester in the reign of King John, when he died; and left a son named John, who succeeded him in his honors, acquired great renown, and took an active part with the Barons against King John. â€¦.
