Foster: son of William of Adlestrop, Glos., arm., BALLIOL matric 23 Oct. 1751 aged 17; demy MAGDALEN College 1752-61; BA 1755; MA 1758; BCL 1763. Of Stoneleigh Abbey, Warwicks [main residence of the family of Baron Leigh]; V of Broadwell, Glos., 1762; R of Adelstrop, Glos 1763 to his death 1813. See Fosters Peerage B.LEIGH; & Bloxam vi.292
The addition of surname Cooke in first entry is an error possibly caused by name of next rector of Broadwell - George Leigh Cooke, who would have been given the name of Leigh from his mother (who was a member of the Leigh family residing at Adelstrop - the Leigh family patrons of these livings)
