  Noted events in his life were:

• source. Kerry Gamble (nee Botten)

• fact. Robert Nans, apparent son of John Nans of Mannecan. No record of death but he appears to be dead by 1462. After John Nans's death, Robert Nans went to court to prevent the then vicar of Mannecan from seizing Nans, Trewince and Martania in St. Martin Parish in Menenge. As one can see by the date, this would be considered a rather old document, it would appear that these were lands passed to Robert as heir by law and he had been living at Nans for many years, yet the church was claiming these three places as church property. Apparently, Robert at least won this suit in part, as in 1462 his son Lawerence held Trewince and was still its owner in 1503.

• Marriage. he was married in 1441 to Unknown


Robert married.
