; Per Genealogics:
     "Sir William de La Pole was the son of William de La Pole and Elena Rotenheryng. With his wife Catherine, he had three sons and two daughters, of whom Michael, Margaret and Blanche would have progeny.
     "William and his (probably older) brother Richard were merchants at Hull by 1317, importing Gascon wines. From 1317 they were deputies of the Royal Chief Butler. From 1321 they were collectors of customs and chamberlains of the town. With the accession of Edward III (then under the tutelage of Roger Mortimer, 1st earl of March, and Isabelle de France), war with Scotland was resumed. The brothers lent the pair large sums of money in 1327, and in return Richard received an appointment as Chief Butler of England. When the Bardi, Edward's Florentine bankers, were unable to lend the king money to pay his troops, the Pole brothers did so. They were owed 13,482 pounds by February 1329.
     "Contrary to earlier suggestions, they did not lose power with Mortimer's fall, as their wealth meant that they could not be totally excluded from the government of Edward III. Richard continued to attend court at a time when Mortimer's supporters were absent. In July 1331 the brothers divided their assets. Richard was again Chief Butler of England from 1333 to 1338. He was an alderman of London from 1330 to 1340 (when he was knighted), but died in 1345. His son William is principally known as a Northamptonshire landowner.
     "In 1331 William persuaded the king to make Hull into an autonomous borough instead of having a royal warden. On the death of the last warden in 1333, the brothers took over the royal property there and William became mayor of Hull, a post he filled for the next 4 years. He also represented the city of Hull in five sessions of Parliament (March 1332, May 1335, September 1336 and February 1338).
     "He continued financing Edward's Scottish wars but also purchased much property in Yorkshire and Durham. His trading activities included the large scale export of wool to Dordrecht, but he and his partners abused the right of compulsory purchase that they were granted, smuggling wool and thus ruined the financing of the king's campaigns in the Netherlands in 1338-40.
     "As a result he and his associates were arrested after the king's return in November 1340, and deprived of their property. However William was released in May 1342 and the proceedings were quashed, probably because the king needed his help financially. He organised a new company, which managed the customs and lent vast sums to the king, also buying up royal debts at a large discount. William withdrew from the company in 1345; it continued and financed the Crécy campaign and the Siege of Calais, but was ruined as a result of the Black Death. He escaped liability for the debts of the now bankrupt company. However the prosecution of 1341 was revived, and William only escaped by renouncing all debts due from the Crown. This, however, still left him a wealthy man.
     "William died in May 1366, five months after his son Michael was summoned to Parliament as a peer.”.¹ He was Earl of Suffolk.¹⁰ GAV-18.

Sir Robert le Grosvenor later assumed Azure a garb or, and his descendant, Hugh Grosvenor, 1st Duke of Westminster, KG, PC, named his famous racehorse and 1880 Derbywinner, "Bend Or," in memory of the arms lost to his family since 1390. After a memorable trial, lasting four years, before a Court of Chivalry under the presidency of the Constable of England, the Duke of Gloucester, at which John of Gaunt, Harry "Hotspur" and the poet Chaucer all gave evidence on Ld Scrope's behalf, the judgment was given against le Grosvenor, and his subsequent appeal to the King dismissed, Ld Scrope's right to the arms being confirmed by RICHARD II 1390.

     Thomazine Downing died; Note in Downing Family Historical Society notes "died young".¹ She was born on 6 October 1715 at England.²
      ; per Futhey and Cope, "History of Chester County": "...died young." She witnessed the immigration of Thomas Downing and Thomazine Beer between 1717 and 1719 at Brandywine River, Downingtown, Chester Co., Pennsylvania, USA; probably between births of son Thomas (b in England 1717) and son Richard (b in PA 1719.)³

     Thomas Downing was born on 27 March 1717 at Bradninch, Devonshire, England.¹ He was baptized on 9 June 1717 at Bradninch, Devonshire, England; Quaker records indicate birth in Concord Twp, Chester Co., PA, but other sources indicate the first two born children were "probably born in England". The Bradninch, England, baptisms from the Devon Record Office show Thomas baptized on 9 Jun 1717. This would certainly indicate he was born in England.²
Thomas Downing died on 19 November 1737 at age 20.³
     He witnessed the immigration of Thomas Downing and Thomazine Beer between 1717 and 1719 at Brandywine River, Downingtown, Chester Co., Pennsylvania, USA; probably between births of son Thomas (b in England 1717) and son Richard (b in PA 1719.)⁴
Thomas Downing lived with Thomas Downing and Thomazine Beer between 1718 and 1732 at Concord Township, Chester Co. (now Delaware Co.), Pennsylvania, USA; per Cope [1901] p. 96: "He was a taxable in Concord township 1718 to 1732."^5,6

John Downing died on 20 December 1796 at Chester Co., Pennsylvania, USA, at age 76.^4,5
     From 'Chester County and Its People', by W. W. Thomson, 1898: 'John Downing continued to reside at Downingtown, where in 1764, he was assessed with two hundred and forty acres of land and buildings, tavern, etc., worth 100 pounds per annum; sixty acres of uncultivated land, five horses, six cattle, thirteen sheep, and one servant. He was a tavernkeeper from 1761 to 1771, at the eatern tavern on the Lancaster Road, then or subsequently called the 'King in Arms,' and later, the Washington Inn.⁶'

;
Recorts of Helen F. Snow, genealogist: 'John Downing became a tavern keeper about 1760 and after several years was succeeded by Richard Cheyney at the Sign of the Kin in Arms, where the Revolutionary county committee met in 1776.' Pennypacker says John was a taver keeper from 1761 to 1771. The King at Arms became the Washington Inn, which wa still owned by a Downing descendant, Clara Fox, when I visited her. In 1764 Richard was assessed in E. Caln with 190 acres, 'His tax was L6:3:3, being the largest in the township, and his brother John was next below him.⁶'

;
per Futhey and Cope, "History of Chester County", p. 525: "He became a tavern-keeper about 1760, and after several years was succeeded by Richard Cheyney at the sign of the "King in Arms," where the Revolutionary county committee met in 1776."¹
John Downing lived with Thomas Downing and Thomazine Beer between 1718 and 1732 at Concord Township, Chester Co. (now Delaware Co.), Pennsylvania, USA; per Cope [1901] p. 96: "He was a taxable in Concord township 1718 to 1732."^7,8
     An interesting newspaper article from "The Pennsylvania Gazette", May 2, 1765: "Went away, on the 24th of April, from the house of JOHN DOWNING, Tavern keeper, in East Caln Township, Chester county, one John Smith, of swarthy complexion, marked with the smallpox, about five feet nine inches high; had on when he went away, a Swanskin jacket, and a brown lincey one under it; he stole a new broadcloth jacket, of a grey colour, a new pair of breeches, one pair of stockings, and a beaver hat, lined with white; he is well known all over America. Whoever takes up and secures said Smith, shall have three pounds reward, and reasonable charges paid by Godfrey Richards."
     In another instance, John placed the following ad in the same paper, December 12, 1765: "Came to the plantation of John Downing in East Caln Township, Chester county about the 18th day of November last, two stray creatures, a horse and a mare, the horse is of a black colour, a natural pacer, and has neither brand nor ear mark, about 12 years old; the mare a dark bay, has a bald face, paces and trots neither brand nor ear mark, about 6 years old. The owner or owners are desired to come and prove their property, pay charges, and take them away."²

John Downing appeared in the census of 1768 at East Caln Township, Chester Co., Pennsylvania, USA;
Ancestry shows three different tax lists for 1768. I believe that they may actually be different years, but they are all marked as 1768.
