| Administrative / biographical background: |
The Hooton Hall estate was held by the Stanley family from the fourteenth century. It included the manors and estates of Hooton, Storeton, Eastham and Burton and estates in Lancashire, Flintshire and elsewhere. The direct line failed in 1792 on the death of Sir William Stanley and the estate passed to his uncle Sir John Stanley Massey of Puddington thus uniting the baronetcies and estates of the Stanleys of Hooton and the Masseys of Puddington. Sir William Stanley Massey Stanley sold the estate to Richard Christopher Naylor of Liverpool in 1849. |
