Administrative / biographical background

The manor and estate of Poole (formerly Whitepool) was acquired by the Cranage family in the sixteenth century. In the mid-sixteenth century, the lands passed by marriage to the Elcocks of Stockport until the death of Mrs Ann Elcock in 1812 when the manor passed (by her will) to her nephew William Massey esq.

The Odd Rode properties may have been acquired via a link between the Elcocks and the Wilbrahams. Margaret Wright nee Elcock married Richard Wilbraham of Nantwich in 1591.
