Of these the eldest was Robert, who, as we learn from the register of Lincoln's Inn, was admitted a student of the Inn in the year 1420. As students were at that period usually admitted when in their teens, it is probable that Robert was born about the year 1400". Reference: Page 102

At a very early period the manor of Tickencote rested in the family of Daneys, or Danus. In the time of Henry II. they held it of the Grimbalds, a powerful family in those days. Sir Robert Daneys, who died without issue in 13 Henry VI., left as his heirs his sister Jane, aged 22, wife of Thomas Dale, and her sister Elizabeth. The Dales obtained the whole of the manor of Tickencote. Thomas, son of the above, died 20 Edward IV., leaving as his heir his son William, aged 8 years. William was lord of the manor of Tickencote, but lived at Tidmarsh in Berkshire. He married Elizabeth, daughter of Richard Danvers, and left three daughters, who married, and became Anne Fetiplace, Elizabeth Lynne, and Johanna Wollescott (Blore's History of Rutland,' p. 59).".
