 Battle of Blenheim ! 2nd August 1704 (Old Style) (13th August 1704 New Style)  

The Slanning family is first documented in 1538 and spanned nine generations until the extinction of the male line in 1700. It was granted or acquired land in Bickleigh, Walkhampton, Maybury, and Roborough, all near Plymouth.

John Pomeroy of Collaton Manor in Newton Ferrers 2nd son of Andrew Pomeroy Senior who died 1581.

He fell in love with Maria Slanning daughter of John Slanning and sister of Nicholas. probably of Maristow in Plympton St Mary.(seeking dates & details)

He caused absolute uproar in both families  taking the deeds to the Collaton Barton to prove he had property and was worthy of Maria. William his brother and head of that family and her brother Nicholas were infuriated but in the end he married her in 1596. She apparently died at the Slanning manor at  Battisborough near Collaton Manor  and was buried at Holbeton 12 Nov 1633

A descendent of her immediate family was Anne Jenkyn Bb Newton Ferrers 24 Sep 1605 daughter of Andrew Pomeroy junior of Collaton by his wife Jane Hext. Anne married Peter Jenkyn of St Columb Major in 1628 ; they had a James Jenkyn born 1629 who married and had 1 son & 5 whose daughter, Mary Jenkyn, became third wife of Sir Nicholas Slanninge, Knt. Bart. They had no issue.

Nicholas Slanning (1606–1643)’ was the son of Gamaliel Slanning of Hele and his wife and cousin Margaret Marler, daughter of Edward Marler of Crayford, Kent.

His name appears numerous times in the Plymouth Black Book records of the Plymouth Corporation

Nicholas Slanning inherited Maristow, Walkhampton, and Bickleigh in1612. He attended Exeter College, Oxford and was admitted to the Inner Temple in 1628. However, he left the next year for the Low Countries "to learn the arts of war".

Slanning returned to England and was knighted on 24 August 1632 at Nonsuch Palace.

He was appointed to the Commission for Piracy in Devon and Cornwall and Vice-Admiral of the Southern Shores of both counties. He was subsequently appointed Governor of Pendennis Castle which guarded the entrance to Falmouth harbour, in 1635, in succession to William Killigrew.
