Welford was inherited by his second son William, who was to be his executor; and the residue, including the entailed Cold Ashby went to his heir Edward. The provisions of the will were scrupulously carried out, and his sons, two of whom were knighted, founded several more branches of the family in Leicestershire and Northamptonshire.
