    'Now we have reached William Gregory ... who is our known Highhurst ancestor--of the 1567 lineage approved by Flower, a herald. ... After a reference to Adam Gregory the pedigree (in present day English and spelling) continues:
    "William Gregory of Highhurst in county Lanc., gent., lineally descended from Adam Gregory aforesaid, married Dorothy, daughter of Mr. Parre of Kempnough in county Lanc., gent., and by her has issue John Gregory, son and heir; Hugh, second son, and John, third son.
    "John Gregory ... son and heir to William aforesaid, married Anne, one of the daughters and coheirs of George Anneslowe of Rodington in county Salop, esquire, ..."
    It is a pity that this, our official pedigree, contains a gross error. The John Gregory who married Anne Oneslow (Onslow) was not the son of the foregoing William, but was the son of another John--of Pagham and Highhurst--who I feel sure was the son of William.'
