Notes |
- A younger son, one of the greatest landowners in England
He was succeeded by his nephew, Thomas, who married a daughter of Charles, 12th Viscount Dillon.
Sir John Webb had a number of illegitimate children, and though he bequeathed the
more important of his possessions to his only legitimate daughter Barbara, afterwards Countess of Shaftesbury, he devised Raskelf Manor and his other Yorkshire estates to a natural son, James Webb.
James Webb dealt with Raskelf Manor by fine in 1818. He died unmarried, and the manor descended
to his nephew Colonel William Frederick Webb, D.L., of Newstead Abbey, Sheriff of
Nottinghamshire in 1865, eldest son of Frederick Webb
