[Illustration] A younger branch of Chadwick of Chadwick, now
extinct, a family which can be traced to the reign of Edward III.
Healey came from the coheiress of Okeden in 1483. Mavesyn Ridware,
in Staffordshire, is also the property of this family, derived by an
heiress from the Cawardens, and ultimately from the Malvesyns, who
came in with the Conqueror.
Younger branch. Chadwick of Swinton, in this county, derived from
the heiress of Strettell: they bear their arms differenced by a
_border engrailed or, charged with cross crosslets_.
See Shaw's Staffordshire, i. p. 166, for a curious account of the
Malvesyns, Cawardens, and Chadwicks of Mavesyn Ridware: see also
Whitaker's Whalley, p. 459.
