Randle Janney was born on 23 Feb 1580, in Styall, Cheshire, Wilmslow Parish, England, the son of Thomas Janney and Jane Worthington. He married Ellen Allred on 14 July 1602. Ellen was born on 18 Aug 1583, in Hough, Wilmslow, Cheshire, England. Randle appraised his father's estate in 1601, and inherited all of his freehold lands in the Parish of Bowdon. He was churchwarden of Wilmslow Parish in 1607. Randle died on 30 Oct 1613, in Styall. Some sources say that Ellen married Thomas Cottley on 29 May 1620. Ellen died on 13 Jan 1644, in Wilmslow.

Children of Randle Janney and Ellen Allred:

1. Thomas Janney born 27 Jun 1605; married Elizabeth Worthington 3 Sept 1625;
both were buried in Friends burial ground in Mobberley; both had become Friends, were persecuted for their Quaker faith, and were imprisoned on at least two occasions; died 7 Dec 1677

2. Randle Janney christened 26 May 1608; married Anne Knevett; died 28 Dec 1698

3. Helen Janney christened 24 Mar 1610 in Wilmslow; died 3 Mar 1611

4. Elizabeth Janney born possibly 2 July 1611/2; married Lawrence Peirson ca 1649; died 13 Aug 1662. One researcher has challenged the long-held family belief that Elizabeth was the daughter of Randle and Ellen Janney and married Lawrence Peirson. There are several different Elizabeth Janneys in the parish records, causing confusion as to who is who.

5. Richard Janney born 20 Feb 1613 and died 16 May 1691
