SANDFORD, Robert II (d.1459/60), of Askham, Westmld.

Family and Education
2nd s. of Edmund Sandford (fl. 1383) of Askham by Idonea (d.1420), da. of Sir Thomas Lengleys (d.1362) of Helton and Great and Little Asby by his w. Alice Kirkbridge. suc. e. bro. William c.1417. m. by Feb. 1426, Elizabeth Thornburgh, at least 1s.JUST 1/1490 rot. 34v. Some unnecessary confusion exists as to the identity of this Member. Cumb. and Westmld. Antiq. and Arch. Soc. n.s. xxi. ped. facing p. 232 states that there were two near-contemporary Robert Sandfords, one the second son of Edmund and Idonea Sandford, and the other his nephew, namely the s. and h. of his elder brother, William, who died in c.1417. It is, however, clear (ibid. n.s. xxii. 339-40; J. Nicolson and R. Burn, Westmld. and Cumb. i. 425) that William left no issue, and that his younger bro., the subject of this biography, succeeded him.
