The places named by Standish, with the exception of the [[Isle of Man]], are all in [[Lancashire, England]], leading some to conclude that Standish was born in Lancashire
— — possibly in the vicinity of [[Chorley]] where a branch of the Standish family owned a manor known as [[Duxbury Woods|Duxbury Hall]].<ref name=Winsor97/>  However, efforts to link Standish to the Standishes of Duxbury Hall have proven inconclusive. A competing theory focuses on Standish's mention of the Isle of Man and argues that Myles belonged to a Manx branch of the Standish family.
