Information about this person:
• Background Information. 729 Dugdale's Visitation of 1664, states that Annota, only daughter and heir of Benedict Gernet, was the wife of Adam des Molines. The Speke extract from the old Lancshire Feodary makes Roger Gernet the grantor in frank marriage, and Richard Molyneux the receiver[ Harl. M.s. 1997, pg. 88. The Citation is from the "Liber Feodorum" remaining in the Duchy Office at Westminister at about 1500]. The fact seems to be, Adam des Molines married an heiress of one of the Gernets of the Halton family, and that he recieved Speke in Franck marriage, either from the father or the bride, or her near kinsman the head of the family. This later was passed to the Erneys, then to the Norreys.
