The points in the Mountney pedigree on which genealogists seem most to differ are : — 1. Who was Bobert Mountney, of Gowley, liying ano. 1499, the son of ? 2. Was John Mountney, who succeeded him, his son, or a relatiye not so closely allied ?— In Brooks' MSS. The Gollege of Arms [i. I.G.B., fol. 246] Robert is made to be the son of Nicholas Mountney [second son of Sir John Mountney, Knt.], by Isabel, his wife, daughter of Robert Draz, of Woodhall, and that he had a brother Nicholas and a sister Isabel, who married Mr. John Denman. — Robert Mountney is made to marry Isabel, daughter of Nicholas Wortley, of Wortley, and relict of John Bosvile, of Ardsley, by whom he had issue a daughter Beatrix, wife of Robert Thwaites, of Marston. Again [93, 1.G.B., fol. 80], Bobert is made to be the son of Thomas Monnteney [eldest son of Sir John Mountney, Ent.], by Maud, his wife, daughter of John Fitzwilliam, of Woodhall.— Robert Mountney is here made to marry Ann, daughter of Nicholas Wortley, of Wortley, and to have issue a son John Mountney, who, by his wife Joan, was father of Barbara Mountney, wife of Robert Thwaites, of Marston. — ^In Dugdale's visitation, ano, 1665, Robert Mountney is made to be son of Sir John Mountney, Ent., and to have issue a daughter Barbara, wife of Robert Thwaites, of Marston. — Mr. Hunter, in the pedigree of this family in his " History of Hallamshire," makes Robert Mountney to be son of Nicholas, and to haye issue John, who was father of Barbara, wife of Robert Thwaites, of Marston.— Perhaps the reader, by using the evidences contained in this note, may be able to dear up these two much disputed points.(https://archive.org/stream/firstbookmarria00scotgoog/firstbookmarria00scotgoog_djvu.txt)

The portrait of Robert Mounteney, who married a sister of Sir Thomas Wortley of Wharncliffe celebrity, and the portrait of his lady, with the arms and effigies of his ancestors, once appeared in the east window of the south aisle of the church at Ecclesfield. That window was placed there by him in 1505. His will bears date the 3rd of August, 1519, and he was buried, according to his directions it contained, in the church of Ecclesfield.
