Families covered: Stourton of Little Langford, Stourtoun of Stourton
TCP Stourton) refers to a pedigree of this family that commences with Botolph and says that it "was long ago disposed of by Round." The pedigree we show comes from BP1934 (Mowbray) and is assumed to be the one that is deemed by TCP to be insecure down to the Sir William who was alive in 1325. | |||||||||||||||

Collins identifies John's wife merely as ... | |||||||||||||||

The connection to the above is supported by MGH (NS2, vol 3 (1890), 'The Family of Sydenham of Brimpton, co. Somerset', p325+) which identifies John's 1st wife as Katherine Payne with Joane, wife of John Sydenham, shown as their only child. What we show contradicts that as it follows various web sites (some of which appear to confuse this John with his father) and is partly supported by CTG (vol 1, 1834, p409 (in Addenda)). | |||||||||||||||
