Documents relating to Magnus:

[10??-11??]



The following documents mention Magnus and members of his family


Given that Robert son of Ravenkil made the presentation, the following document possibly names a member of the family, possibly a younger son of Magnus. There are questions as to the nature of the church at Lytham in the period, and the way that this Magnus is named in the Attestation.


2.4 Ebor. 28 [early 13th century]

Attestation by R. dean and the chapter of Lancaster that Magnus was canonically instituted into the church of Lytham on the presentation of Roger son of Ravenkil by the ordinary that on Magnus's death Adam dean of Kirkham acquired it on Roger's presentation and that after Roger's death his son Richard granted the whole territory and church of Lytham to St Cuthbert and the monks of Durham.
