Ordination record of 1715 says James Stanley, but there is no James Stanley in Foster. Presumably, therefore:
Foster: Stanley, John, s. John, of Ponsonby, Cumberland, paup. Queen's Coll., matric. 26 June 1711, aged 17, BA 1714, MA 1717; rector of Liverpool, Lancs, 1726-50, of Workington, Cumberland, 1726-53, and of Halsall, Lancs, 1750-7. See Foster's Index Eccl.
