2Rev. Arnold Harris Hord, Hord family of Virginia. A supplement to the Genealogy of the Hord Family., 1915. "John FauntIeroy. esq, who died 1698 without issue, gave his estate by will to Mr. George Cooper; but it was claimed, and the validity of the will contested by the heirs of Mary, daughter of William Fauntleroy, esq. who married William Ridout, and by the heirs of James, fifth son of William Fauntleroy, esq. who died in Barbadoes, 1695, and left, a son and two daughters. After several years controversy this suit was given up; but the estate was sold 1707 to John Conyers, esq. the trustee for Thomas viscount Weymouth, to whose heir it now belongs.
Of the family of the Fauntleroys seems to have been William Faunderoy, of New College, Oxford; admitted D.D. 1506, and comissary or vicechancellor of that university, from 1506 to 1514. He was brother of Elizabeth abbess of Ambresbury, and probably rector of Lidlinch in this county from 1527 to 1537. One of the same name and degree was warden of Higham-Ferrers c. Northampton.
Here was the ancient seat of the Fauntleroys, a pretty large, low, and very grotesque piece of building, entirely of stone, and perhaps one of the most ancient houses in this county."3Rev.
