Sorry to be a pest bu still unable to add William
I will, however, create Sir Thomas Lodge if you could add a note about grandson, Sir Thomas Lodge through his illegitimate son, William Littleton alias Lodge it would be much appreciated. I will contact you about a WikiTree ID in about a week or two if you would do this.
Trying to find a way forward and found a reasonable source as follows
The Visitation of Shropshire 1622, pedigreeof Lodge of Over. Harlean 1396 folio 181 page 284 https://archive.org/details/visitationshrop01britgoog/page/n9/mode/2up?view=theater will try and build theprofiles Robin
click on hereand takes you to the profile you wanted, taken me all afternoon and still uncertain butseems right Robin
I will add Sir Thomas Lodge as soon as possible!
If you add, William, I will add Sir Thomas Lodge. I don't have Pre-1500 Certification.
