To give some interesting links to researchers I have found it useful to list some of the more significant Stanley-related sites here on this page. Some of these are rather quirky, but I hope you will find something of interest here.

 

While browsing the internet I have found some more quirky pages that still relate to the Stanley name and I include these also for your delectation.

What does the Stanley name mean?

William Shakespeare
The authorship of Shakespeare’s plays is disputed and one of the candidates for the real authorship is William Stanley, 6th Earl of Derby. To read more on this subject there are some interesting links to follow-up, see what you think:

Maybe your Stanleys went up before the Law? Check the Old Bailey site and search for “Stanley”, these are mainly 18th century records and pertain mainly to Londoners.
