daughter and coheir, and Thomas Warde is one of the persons to 

 whom Henry Sturmy gives his receipt. A third coheir was perhaps 

 the wife of EobertMorsel, otherwise Eobert Mussell, of Hinclon, also 

 mentioned in the acquittance ; and it is permissible to conjecture 

 that in right of Agnes, his wife — called Agnesafterhergrandmother, 

 Agnes (de Wilmyndon) — niece of the above-mentioned Margaret 

 Why teclive, and daughter either of Thomas and Lettice Warde, or of 

 Kobert Mussell — or possibly daughter of yet another coheir — one 

 William Lyveden became possessed of a third, or some other 

 fraction of the scattered inheritance of William de Whiteclyve. 

 What is certain, is that the family of Whiteclyve was followed, at 

 Whitecliff and elsewhere, and at such interval of time as suggests 

 ^n intervening generation, by a family of Lyveden, of whom the 

 first mentioned is William Lyveden, whose wife was Agnes.

Such is the not very promising entry of William Lyveden on 

 the scene. Whatever the trouble was about it seems to have been 

 satisfactorily arranged, and in our next document we find William 

 and Agnes his wife, accpiiring from a daughter of AVilliam de 

 AVhyteclyve, an aunt of Agnes, as we i)resume, her share of her 

 falJier, William's, inheritance in Whitecliff, Steeple Ashton, and 

 lUadford, in exchange for an annuity of 166'. for life.
