Elinour's mother, Elizabeth, died at Frodsham on 8 August 1570, and her father married Elinour Cotgrave, the daughter of John Cotgreve of Stubbs, widow of Sir Richard Pexsall, about 1572 at Clifton, Cheshire, England, and they had no children.^{[2] [1]}

Henry was knighted in 1578 in Ireland, obtained the reversion to his father's office of marshal in 1583, and succeeded his father in that post and was sworn as a privy counsellor on 24 October 1590. Henry's sister, Mabel, eloped with the Earl of Tyrone, and they married in August 1591, and as Henry refused to pay Mabel's dowry, a feud began, Tyrone revolted, and Henry died in the action on the Blackwater, on 14 August, 1598.^[4] His estate was in such a mess that Eleanor requested the Privy Council look into it, and administration was granted to her in 1604.

Death

Eleanor's death date of 7 Apr 1593 is not accurate as she married her second husband, Sackville Trevor about 1604. A death date of 1620 has been proposed by user-submitted pedigrees. More research is required to determine the exact date.
