***Additional Curator's Note***
Ellen de Baguley (or de Baggilegh) is often called Ellen de Corona because she was the heir of Thomas de Corona, a kinsman of hers (Thomas de Corona was Ellen's first cousin once removed.). Some researchers claim that Thomas and Ellen were brother and sister, while others claim she was his daughter. Whatever the relationship, Thomas died without heirs and left Ellen Adlington Hall, a Tudor estate in Cheshire, England. Ellen married John Leigh or Legh and brought the property into Leigh family, and it remains as their private property even today. Wikipedia has some nice pictures of the property here -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adlington_Hall. Originally the hall consisted of timber-framed buildings on three or four sides of a courtyard surrounded by a moat. The Great Hall, on the north side of the courtyard, was built between 1480 and 1505 for Thomas Legh I. -- Maria Edmonds-Zediker, Curator, 7/10/2011

Eleanor de Baggileh/Baguley .At the Conquest the lodge (Adlington Hall) came in to the possession of Hugh Lupus, Earl of Chester. In the early 13th century the hall was granted to the de Coruna family who held it for four generations before running out of male heirs. Eleanor the daughter of Sir William de Baggilegh was the heiress (see the additions and corrections in Ormerod's History of Cheshire). She married John de Legh of Booths and their son, Robert de Legh eventually succeeded to the hall and estate. The hall has remained in the same family ever since, albeit with succession through the female line in the 18th century, in 1888 when it went through two females, in 1940, and again in 1992. The family tree below showing the succession of heirs from the late 17th century is drawn in part from the hall's brochure and in part from East Cheshire Past and Present by J.P. Earwaker, London, 1877. Stuart Raymond, in Cheshire: A Genealogical Bibliography, Vol. 2 lists as a source Cheshire families: Legh of Adlington in Advertiser Notes and Queries, 1, 1882, 186-9.

Ellen , daughter of Lucy de Corona, married Sir John Legh , son of Sir William Venables of Bradwell, and called "de Legh" from having been left to the care of his mother, whose maiden name was Legh, and which was also the name of the place where he was born, and where he lived till his marriage. From this marriage the Leghs of Adlington descend.

notes on Elena (Ellen) de Corona
Copied from Adlington Hall website, fp.adlington.plus.com/history.htm:------------------------- HISTORY
Of Adlington prior to the Norman Conquest we know very little, except that it was held by the Saxon Earl Edwin, not as a place of residence, but as a hunting lodge in the Forest of Macclesfield. After the Conquest it passed to Hugh Lupus, Earl of Chester, and the nephew of William the Conqueror. As "Edulvinstane" it is mentioned in the Domesday Survey.
Early in the thirteenth century it was granted to a family named "de Corona". Four generations of this family lived at Adlington, Thomas and Ellen de Corona being the children of the third generation. Thomas married, but his son predeceased him without issue. Ellen married John de Legh of Booths and in the year 1315 Thomas de Corona granted Adlington to his sister Ellen and her husband for their lives, with remainder to Robert de Legh their second son and his heirs for ever. The Legh family has lived at Adlington since this date.

KINSHIP: Conflict/Error> Ormerod's 'History of Cheshire' volume 1 part 2 pages 497 and 499 makes her the daughter of Thomas de Corona.(Research)
KINSHIP: Conflict/Error> Rylands' 'Visitation of Cheshire in the Year 1580' volume 18 pages 145, 147, and 151 call her "Ellin d. & heire to Sr Wm Baguley".(Research)
KINSHIP: Correction> Ormerod's 'History of Cheshire' volume 3 part 2 page 654 footnote b states "Some of the Cheshire pedigrees erroneously make Ellen daughter of William de Baguley, by a daughter of Thomas de Corona".(Research)
KINSHIP: Correction> Ormerod's 'History of Cheshire' volume 3 part 2 page 661 states "erroneously called by the pedigrees daughter of Thomas de Corona, but probably his aunt, and sister of John de Coroun, Lord of Adelynton, and probably heiress-at-law of the Corouns". Page 654 states "Elen Legh (called Corona by Ormerod) is erroneously made by the pedigrees (followed by Mr. Ormerod, both here and in vol. I of this work, p. 499) daughter of Thomas de Coroun, or Corona; but by the discovery of fresh evidence, an opportunity is now afforded of showing the improbability (amounting almost to an impossibly) of this Thomas having been grandfather 9 Edward II to the children of Elen de Legh." In this settlement, 9 Edward II, limitations were to the settlor for life (Thomas de Coroun), and then to the heirs of his body, with remainder to John de Legh and Elen his wife for their lives in survivorship, with successive remainders in tail to their sons, Robert, William and Peter, with final remainder to the right heirs of the said John. "She must therefore be sought in an earlier generation; and in the absence of every indication, save one, of her paternity, it is not improbable that she was sister, or more probably, aunt to Thomas de Coroun. She and her husband, John de Legh, in 10 Edw. II. had a further grant from Thomas de Coroun, of the reversion in fee of the lands which Lucy de Coroun then held in dower in Adlyngton, and the reversion of the lands which Margaret widow of John de Coroun held in this manor."
