Uncertain Ancestry

Elinor is identified in the Thornburgh pedigree as the daughter of "Sir Richard Musgrave of Musgrave knight"^[2]. It is assumed that this was the Sir Richard de Musgrave who married Elizabeth Betham (mentioned in Burke's Peerage), as the ages fit, but there might have been another Sir Richard Musgrave.
