Abstract:
In my article entitled "The Hortons of Leicestershire" which appeared in The Transactions of the Leicestershire Archaeological and Historical Society Vol. xxii, Part 1, 1941, pages 96-116, and which was later-in 1943-republished as a pamphlet, I traced the Hortons of this Coubty as far back as the 1200's when the first of them in the person of Henry de Horton, hailing from Horton, Co. Northampton, appeared at Knaptoft, Co. Leicester, at some date between 1268 and 1277. He was shown to have been succeeded at Knaptoft by his son Hugh de Horton, whereafter the family resided partly at Knaptoft and partly at Mowsley. The part of the family residing at Knaptoft was shewn to have left Knaptoft sometime after 1332 and to have migrated to the Borough of Leicester, whereas the Hortons of Mowsley continued at Mowsley right through the centuries down to the commencement of the century wherein we ourselves are living.
