[Illustration] This family is traced to Rawlin Try, in the reign of
Richard II. He married an heiress of Berkeley, by whom he had the
manor of Alkington in Berkeley. His great-grandson was High Sheriff
of Gloucestershire in 1447, and married an heiress of Boteler, from
whence came the manor of Hardwicke, sold to the Yorkes in the last
century. Leckhampton came from the Norwood family in recent times.
