Biography

Richard was born about 1560. He was the son of Ralph Sleigh.

Richard Sleigh of London made an agreement with Jefferey Roberts of Bradway, Derbyshire, regarding a water mill in Bradway on 3 May 1611.[1]

His brother Edmund's will in 1615 states that he was living in London with his wife and three children.[2]

His three children listed in the Visitation of London 1634[3] were

  • Edmund, mercer of London, married Elizabeth daughter of Daniel Winch
  • Martha
  • Mary

Richard Sleigh, Citizen and Vintner of London, was dead before 1620, when his son Edmund was apprenticed to Richard Hunt, mercer.[4]
