  • Notes 
    • I have sources for John de Stourton (as father of Esther/Edith, no parentage indicated), who I assume to be this John, who CP [vol XII/1:300 note (h)] indicates is "of Preston Plucknett", being the younger son of John of Stourton. I think that there were many John de Stourtons, which makes it confusing as to how many there were in a row, and who was married to which wife. His marriages to Jane Basset and Catherine Beaumont are taken from World Connect/LDS sources. His son John is sourced as "of Preston Plucknett" and father of Alice. There is no source connecting John with his son John, except that it is pretty obvious because both are of Preston Plucknett.

      The elder son William (of John & Lettice) held Stourton with a descendancy that goes into the 1960's, while this John, his younger brother, was ancestor of the Stourtons of Preston, which his father John acquired in 1380 (source - CP).
