    Notes 
    • The history of the Vaynor Park estate can be traced back to 1459 when Howel ap Ievan was granted the corn and fulling mills of Eberrewe (Berriew) by Richard, duke of York. He was succeeded by his son, Edward ap Hywel ap Ieuan Llwyd who built a house on the estate. He was succeeded by his son, Richard ap Edward, who died leaving his daughters Anne and Elizabeth as co-heiresses. The portion of Elizabeth became the property, presumably by purchase, of Arthur Pryce of Vaynor. The estate passed to the Devereux family following the marriage of Arthur Price's great-granddaughter, Bridget, with George Devereux. After the death of Pryce Devereux, 10th viscount Hereford (1694-1748), the estate was sold to Robert Moxon, a London lawyer. His niece, Ann, inherited the estate and married Joseph Winder (d. 1785). The estate subsequently passed to Joseph Winder's daughter, Elizabeth Winder (1752-1820), who married Joseph Lyon (d. 1809). The estate then passed to their daughter Mary Ann Jane Lyon (1792-1879), who married Uvedale Plymley of Longor, Leicestershire (d. 1871) who assumed the surname and arms of Corbett in 1804. He assumed the surname Corbett-Winder by royal licence in 1869. Their son, William Corbett-Winder (1820-1907), married Cecilia Millicent in 1872. Their son was William John Corbett-Winder (1875-1950) and his successor was Col John Lyon Corbett-Winder (b. 1911) of Vaynor Park.
