Thomas Warcop III; (2) by Aug. 1388, Margaret Plumland, prob. wid. of Robert Cliburn of Cliburn Hervey, at least 1s. 1da.; (3) by 1411, Alice, wid. of Sir Walter Strickland (d.1407/8) of Sizergh.Later Recs. N. Westmld. ed. Ferguson, 77, 137; Recs. Kendale ed. Farrer and Curwen, i. 170; ii. 194; Cumb. and Westmld. Antiq. and Arch. Soc. n.s. viii. 312-13, 318, 324-5; CIPM, xvi. nos. 837, 838; CPL, iv. 499; RP, iii. 654-5. It has been argued that the Thomas Warcop who married Katherine Smardale and then Margaret Plumland was the father of our MP but this seems unlikely on chronological grounds (Cumb. and Westmld. Antiq. and Arch. Soc. n.s. xxii. 338-9).
