This family, which originally bore the name of L'ISLE, and was seated at Broughton, in the county of Lincoln, is thus spoken of by COLLIER, in his historical dictionary: "Lionel Anderson, esq. lineally descended from the ancient family of the Andersons of Northumberland (as appears by a grant from Clarencieux), afterwards settled in Lincolnshire, from whom this Lionel is in the genealogy the seventeenth. Their first name was (as Sir Richard Anderson, the antiquarian, relates) L'Isle; but marrying an heiress, were obliged to take her name of Anderson. The chief seat of the family is Broughton (now enjoyed by Sir Stephen Anderson, bart.) in Lincolnshire there are likewise three other branches of it, as, Sir Edmund Anderson, in Hertfordshire, Sir Richard, in Buckinghamshire, and Sir John, of Newcastle." This family intermarried with several of the nobility, and a great many of the principal gentry of several counties; as that of Sheffield, Clinton, alias Fines, Sherwood, Butler, Beaumont, Booth, all noble houses, and as for commoners, they are related by marriage to the L'Estranges, Mounsons, Dallisons, Fitzwilliams, Cottons of Huntingdonshire, Constables of Yorkshire, Johnsons of Lancashire, and to several other families of figure and consideration.

Of the family of L'ISLE of Northumberland, was ROBERT L'ISLE, who flourished in the reigns of HENRY IV. and HENRY V. and who, on marrying the heiress of ANDERSON, took the name in place of his own. He was ancestor of
