Administrative history:

Artificial collection of records created by George Edward Cokayne concerning the Viscounts Cullen of Rushton and related families.
Rushton Hall was purchased from the Treshams in 1614 by Sir William Cokayne (d.1626) a London merchant and financier who became Lord Mayor. His son Charles lived at Rushton and was made Viscount Cullen in 1642. The 2nd Lady Cullen was a Restoration beauty who almost bankrupted the family. The 5th Lord Cullen (d.1802) was a noted race horse owner. The last Viscount died in 1810 and the estates were split between 10 co-heiresses, the daughters of the Hon. William Cokayne who married Barbara Hill of Rothwell. Mrs Cokayne (d.1838) later took the additional name Medlycott on becoming heiress to Thomas Medlycott of Cottingham. One of the daughters Mrs Mary Anne Adams had a son George Edward who took the name Cokayne. Others married into the Pery, Maunsell, Assheton and Austen families. George Edward Cokayne, the originator of this collection, was Clarenceux King of Arms and editor of The Complete Peerage. His son Sir Brien Cokayne was Governor of the Bank of England 1918-1920, and was created Lord Cullen of Ashbourne in 1920. Rushton Hall had been sold to William Williams Hope in 1828.
