In the same year that he inherited the manor, 1240, Radulphus de Standish joined with many of his neighbours in bringing a writ against William de Ferrers (who had acquired the Marsey overlordship by marriage) demanding that de Ferrers should acquit them of services, which were owing to John, Earl of Lincoln, who had become guardian of the land belonging to Penwortham and Leyland.
About the same time, Hugh, son of Gerald de Duleys (Douglas?) granted some land in Shevington to Radulphus. It is described as "beginning at the old ditch on the south side of my land of Duleys, thence to the cross and from the cross to the bridge of Sevyngton, then following that ditch to the said old ditch." He was also granted quit of pannage (the right to pasture swine) in the woods of Shevington at a rent of twopence yearly at Midsummer.
This Radulphus had three sons of whom any records exist, namely Edmund, Hugh and Jordan. These sons all succeeded in turn to the manor after the death of their father in 1246.[1]
