| | GENUKI: Flamborough Parish information from Bulmers' 1892. |
 | | Sir Robert Constable, of Flamborough, was knighted with 300 others at a great Whitsuntide festival, in the 34th Edward I., to augment the splendour of the court and the glory of his intended expedition into Scotland. |
 | | Their connection with Flamborough ceased a little over two centuries ago, when the manor was purchased by Walter Strickland, Esq., as appears from an inscription on a mural tablet in the south aisle. |
 | | The last orthography occurs on the monumental brass in Flamborough church, to the memory of Sir Marmaduke Constable, who was born in 1443, and died in the reign of Henry VIII., and the present form of the name is evidently a still later corruption. |
