[Illustration] Ormerod traces this family to Sir John Baskervyle,
grantee of a moiety of Old Withington from Robert de Camvyle in
1266, and that estate has ever since remained in the family. In 1758
John Baskervyle, Esq., the representative of the house of Old
Withington, having married the heiress of Glegg of Gayton, in this
county, assumed that name in lieu of his own.
See Ormerod, iii. 355; and for Glegg, ib. ii. 285.
ARMS.--_Argent, a chevron gules between three hurts_. This coat,
_the chevron charged with three fleurs-de-lis or_, was borne by
"Monsire de Baskervile;" see Sir Harris Nicolas's Roll of Arms temp.
E. III.
Present Representative, John Baskervyle Glegg, Esq.
