Sir John de Peyton ⁶⁸

  General Notes:

He flourished in the time of Henry III and married after having two wives successively of the name of Agnes, Clementia lady of Weyland to whom and to himself a grant of land was made in 1242. He had a grant of free warren here in 1298 and three years later served in Parliament as one of the Knights of the Shire for Suffolk. This John de Peyton is probably the man who with Agnes his wife levied a fine of Peyton Manor in 1317 against Henry de Wellington and Henry de Norwich parson of Colneye. He was buried at Stoke Nayland in 1318. His Will is dated in Sept. of this year, and it was proved the 26 Jan. 1318. On his death he was succeeded by his eldest son Sir Robert Peyton. A release &c. of the manor in 1335 and 1346 will be found amongst the Harl. Charters.
