Sir Francis Hulme

Notes:

...The family of Hulme, to which Francis Hulme belonged, was found in Cheshire and Lancashire from an early date. Like other families, it took its name from the property which it held. Holme or Hulme means low, flat land near a river. A place such as that was usually composed of rich meadow land or flats, and for agricultural purposes was very valuable. In the time of Henry II, there was a John de Hulme, who built the mansion of Hulme. There are several ancient mansions in the parish of Manchester, among which may be enumerated Hulme Hall, the ancient manorhouse, occupied in the reign of Henry II by John de Hulme.
...Unfortunately, it did not remain in the possession of the family for any length of time, for in the reign of Edward I, it was held by Adam, the son of Adam de Rotoundale. The family, however, held other land and continued to be known as Hulme, of Hulme.
...Francis Hulme prefereed to remain attached to the Parish Church, of which he was a churchwarden for many years, and a monument was erected to his memory at mobberley Church by his eight daughters.
