Peter Warburton died 2 July 1626, Arley, Cheshire, England, age 84.

Peter Warburton (1537-1626) of Arley[1] was born in 1537[2]. Peter was the son of Sir John Warburton (d. 1575) of Arley, and Mary, daughter of William Brereton of Brereton.[3] Peter had two brothers: John[3]; and George married to Elizabeth[1], the daughter of Heskett (Hesketh), widow to Alexander[1] Houghton[3]; and three sisters: Elizabeth, wife of Sir William Boothe of Dunham[3]; Anne[3]; and Jane[3]. Peter married Mary, the daughter of Sir John Holcroft[3] of Holcroft, co Lanc[1]. They were already married on 2 December, 1559, 2 Elizabeth, when Mary's father, Sir John Holcroft of Holcroft, Knt, wrote his will, making his will's supervisors his sons-in-law: Thomas Haskythe, knyght; Peter Warburton, equyer; Wyllyam Ratcliff, esquier; Harry Talbot, esquyer; Francys Holte, esquire; and Rchard Ley, esquier.[4] His father, (styled Sir John, knt. by Ormerod), died in 1572 in his 52nd year[5], or (styled Johannes Warburton miles, latin for soldier, in Visitation 1613)[1] in 1575[3]. Peter was his father's heir.[5] In 1579, 22 Elizabeth, Peter Warburton of Arely, Esqr is listed under the Bucklow Hundred in the The Names of all and singular Knights, Esquires, Gentlemen, & Freeholders in Com. Cestriae. published 1580 when Sir Ralph Egerton was Sherriffe of the Shire.[6] Peter Warburton was a witness to, and named an overseer of, the last will and testament of William Glaseor, Esq., "Vice Chamberlain of the county palatyne of Chester and alderman of the cittie of Chester", made on 26 June, 1588, 30 Elizabeth.[7] In the will, William leaves to his son Hughe his "lease of Arrowe and witch howsse in the Northwitch wch Sr Perres Dutton Knight made to my late brother John Glaseor and his assignes for terme of yeares yet enduringe whose right and terms I have in and to the same [and also] the moytee of one salte howse or wiche howse ...

I geve the same occupacon unto him duringe his lief he payinge the yearlie rent of xl s. wch he now payethe for the same". At the time of the Herald's Visitation in 1580, their children were recorded as below[3]. A Herald visited again in 1613 and the modifications made to Peter's pedigree in the printed version of the 1613 Visitations[1] are italicised. Additional information about Peter and Mary's children from Ormerod's pedigree of Warburton of Warburton and Arley has been noted in boldface.[8] 1. Mary, married Thomas Wilbram (Wilburgham, Wilbraham) of Woodhey (Wodhey), esq, 25 June, 1627; 2. Elizabeth, wife of Rafe (Ralf) Egerton of Ridley, esq; 3. Jane, wife of William Brereton of Ashley, esq, married 1589, buried 3 March, 1627, at Bowdon; 4. Dorothy [who perhaps died] 5. Elenor (Elinor, Eleanor), wife of Thomas Marbury (Merbury) of Marbury (Merbury), esq, married at Great Budworth, 13 May, 1593; 6.

Isabell, wife of Edward Stanley of Bickerstaff, co. Lanc, kt; 9. Anne, without issue. The written record of the visitation in 1613 was signed "John Woodfine for my Mr, Mr Peter Warburton of Arley".[1] So perhaps Peter was illiterate? Peter was an "armiger", entitled to bear heraldic arms.[1] The Warburton of Arley Pedigree was "Entred"[9] in the Visitation of 1613, a new younger branch of the Warburtons. Arms • 1613 (Harl.
