Notes par HENRY AUDLEY

Source <The borough of Stoke-upon-Trent, in the commencement of the reign of ...> Par John Ward:
"... Henry was the son of Adam, whose grandfather Adam is said, by Erdeswick, to be the first of that name he could discover, and to have been, likewise, the ancestor of the Family of Stanley, (now Earls of Derby;) and, as he infers from their armorial bearing, of the race of the Verduns; and Dugdale comes to the same conclusion. But this is uncertain; for Erdeswick afterwards distrusted his own previous opinion ; and suggested, that the Audleys may have been an ancient house, standing of themselves, though not at the first bearing that name, nor descended paternally from the Verduns. We think it sufficient, however, to commence with Adam, the great grandfather of Henry ; and shall not attempt to trace the family back to their first great ancestor, whose name they adopted, and who lived 5000 years before; though we should by no means despair of doing so, by the aid of some of the old monkish historians, who reckoned only about forty-seven generations from Shem, the son of Noah, through the Gothic and Anglo-Saxon tribes, down to King Henry the Second of England.*
It may not be amiss, however, to observe here, further, with respect to Surnames, that soon after the Norman Conquest, in order to obviate the confusion incident to single names of persons, owners of lands began to borrow distinctive personal appellations from their possessions; which names were sometimes changed, as the parties, or their families, removed to other localities. Brethren of the same house, often adopted different surnames; and probably, Adam de Audley first assumed that appellative, from the Vill, or place at which he settled, and which was purchased or acquired from Nicholas de Verdun. ..."

With his father, he was witness to a charter of Hervey Bagot in 1194. He bought large estates from Eleanor Malbank in 1214, and in 1227 acquired the manors of Edgmund and Newport, and in 1230, the manor in Ford, all located in Shropshire and all held by him of the Crown. He was under-Sheriff of Salop and Stafford 1217-20, and Sheriff 1227-32, and was in command of the Welsh Marches 1223-46. He built the castle of Heleigh in Stafford, as well as Red Castle in Salop, and in 1223, founded Hulton Abbey. Upon the extinction of the earldom of Chester, he was appointed Custodian of Chester in Jun 1237. He died in 1246, shortly before Nov, and his widow, Bertrade, was still living in 1249.
