1425?
William was born say in about 1425.
Could he have been a grandson of William Farndale of Doncaster (FAR00038)?
1450?
Perhaps William married Rose Farndale in
about 1450.
If they had children, they may have been
born in about 1451 to 1470.
If this family was linked to the Doncaster
line, then it is possible that William and Rose were ancestors to Nicholas
Farndale (FAR00059).
1490?
William died, say aged 65.
1493?

Farndale, plaintiff, late wife of William Farndale that John Reignold of Dodynghurst, Co
Essex, husbandman, sold to said William for a sum agreed and paid, a
tenement set in Dodynghurst aforesaid, called Whitefeldes ‘tenement’ with a garden and two fields, one
called Hornefeld and the other Barnefeld
and the said john Reignold promised to make
‘sufficient estate thereof’ to said William or to whom he would advise; before
any estate made thereof the same William made his will by which he
willed that the plaintiff should have the said tenement and land to her and her
heirs for ever. Since his death the plaintiff has required said John Reignold to make estate of the premises to her and to
her heirs and he has refused and has entered into the
said lands and occupies them contrary to all reason and conscience.”
