[his former sister-in-law] Elizabeth married Sir Francis Compton and died childless early in 1662; it being recorded in the private act of Parliament passed in 1675-6 to enable him [Sir Francis Compton] to sell Hamerton, of which he had bought a half share from Sir Thomas Leventhorpe and his wife [his former wife] Mary, for £10,000 in November, 1661, that his own wife had died shortly after that date.
