About Alice Winwick

See her grandfather Robert de Thornton's profile overview for a complete documentation for how Alice Winwick's marriage to Alan de Singleton passed the Goosnargh/Whittingham Property over to the family of Alan de Singleton of Broughton. The Goosnargh property later became the building site of Chingle Hall on the new manor of Singleton Hall.

From British History Online: Whittingham, Lancashire https://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/lancs/vol7/pp207-213 see in Footnotes #8 "In 1202 Roger de Freckleton confirmed 8 oxgangs of land in Whittingham and Elswick to William de Winwick and Maud his wife in exchange for other lands there and elsewhere; Feet of F. Yorks. 4 John, no. 45. Maud, called 'de Thornton' or 'daughter of Robert,' gave land in Whittingham to Cockersand Abbey, 3 acres with her body, and 6 acres (in Flecher Oatley) for the soul of her lord William de Winwick; Chartul. (Chet. Soc), i, 231–2. The Abbot of Cockersand in 1246 made an agreement with Alice de Thornton (daughter of Maud) as to land in Whittingham; Final Conc. (Rec. Soc. Lancs. and Ches.), i, 103."

This was how the lands in Whittingham/Goosnargh were distributed to Matilda de Winwick (de Thornton) and some was traded for other land resulting in the building of the Chingle Hall in Goosnargh/Whittingham, Lancs. Some of the lands were passed to Matilda de Winwick from her Thornton inheritance and then to her daughter Alice who married Alan de Singleton of Broughton b1183. This also shows the 3 generation relationships from Robert de Thornton to Matilda (Maud) de Winwick (de Thornton) to Alice Winwick de Singleton.
