[S937] Joseph Tilley, Old Halls, Manors, and Families of Derbyshire, Volume 2: There is an incident of one of them both pathetic and tragic, of which the particulars cost considerable research, for they are not given in the Slate Trials, nor in those authorities where we should expect to find them. James Rolleston, who married Anne Babbington (time of Henry VII.), had a grandson, Francis, husband of Mary Vernon, of Harleston. This gentleman held that the captivity of Mary Queen of Scots was unjust, and devised a plan by which that unfortunate lady might have escaped, but he was betrayed by his own son, flung into the Tower, and beheaded.
