Robert Lakeland (b.1737 d.1791)
Homefield Farm which in his Will was a part of his residue estate not left to his son, but to his wife, brother William,and friends David Lambert and John Symour.

How did Holmfield come into the hands of Isabell's grandson William Elgey? (of Holmfied)
Family rumour has it that it was later lost in a court case.

( Robert bought the lease of Holmfield from Richard Maycock "I am also purchased of him my farm called Holmefield holden under a lease for lifes from the prebendary of the prebend of Holm Archiepiscopie in York Cathedral")
