Notes:
John Harington, son of Robert and Agnes, was an outstanding man
in his generation. He was born in 1281 and died in 1347. He was
knighted by the Prince of Wales in Westminster Palace. He fought
against the Scots and was made a Baron and attended Parliament
from 1326 until his death. He married Joan, daughter of Sir William
Dacre. They were buried in nearby Cartmel Church in a magnificent
tomb out from a solid block of sandstone seven feet long with their
effigies carved on the top. The tomb was opened in 1832 during
repairs to its screen and some of John?s bones, the bones of his
hunting hawk or falcon together with a piece of his leather
doublet, were removed. They are in the possession of one of his
descendants in England today.
By this time the family name had been changed from de Haverington
to Harington.
Many branches of the Harrington family descend from this John of
Aldingham, Harrington is a common name in this section today.
One of his younger sons, Nicholas Harrington, founded a family
in Yorkshire which was, for two centuries, one of the richest
and most powerful in England. However, in the Wars of the Roses they supported the wrong side and many fell in battle or were beheaded. The twenty-five manors they had possessed were forfeited to the Crown and they passed from history.John — Dacre, Joan. (daughter of Dacre, Sir William) [Group Sheet]
