| BE1883, which does not provide any details on his children, says of John, 2nd Lord, that "nothing further appears known, except that he was an ancestor of the Feltons of Playford". We presume provisionally that this was through a son not mentioned by TCP, as follows. | |||||||||||||||
| Fe21 | ?? de Felton b about 1314 | ||||||||||||||
| Uncertain on number of intervening generations. Some web sites name this son of Sir John as Sir Edmund and show him as father of John m. Agnes Denys father of another John who either was the John who married Joan Mossell or was father of that last-mentioned John. | |||||||||||||||
| Fe16 | ??William de Felton b about 1440 | ||||||||||||||
| 1
Note that around this time there was a William Felton alias Chapman
'of Playford', father of Margaret b
about 1460 who married
John Drury of Rougham 1456-1499.
The dates for that John Drury seem to be shortly before Playford came into
this family so we suspect that the Drury data was wrong in identifying
Margaret's father as 'of Playford'. Nevertheless, it is possible that William
was a son of this family.
2 VCH 'An Essay towards a Topographical History of the County of Norfolk: volume 1', Hundred of Diss: Shelfhanger refers to a sale in 1526 by "Thomas Felton, Esq. which Thomas was son of Robert Felton, Esq. had Margery his wife, sister and heiress to Sir Thomas Sampson of Playford in Suffolk, Knt. which Robert was son of John Chapman, alias Felton, by Joan, the other daughter of Thomas Mossell". That seems to imply that it was Thomas who married Margery Sampson but we presume that that was loose wording and follow BEB1841 which starts with the following John. Margaret would have been 16 to 25 when marrying John Drury about 1480 to 85 and her father would have been about 20 to 25 years older. Hence he could easily have been involved in later battles of the Wars of Roses and the persecutions under the Tudors, which makes maintaining an alias all through the Tudor era a fully plausible action. |

| BE1883 mentions a contemporary of the above John of Litcham, 2nd Lord, as a William, Governor of Roxburgh Castle, summoned to parliament in 1342 but not afterwards, who left a son Sir John. TCP Felton identifies the William of Roxburgh Castle as the William of Edlingham shown above as uncle of John of Litcham, pointing out that that summoning was to a council rather than to a parliament. As TCP, which we view as more reliable than BE1883, identifies William of Edlingham's children differently, as shown above, we initially presumed that BE1883 had confused two if not 3 different Williams, including both the afore-mentioned William, 1st of Edlingham, and his son William. HOWEVER, we then noted that BE1883 reports Sir John as having a daughter Joan who married Walter Falconberg and had a son Thomas. We suspect that this refers to the Constance who married Thomas de Fauconberg, son of Walter, and is shown by TCP Fauconberge as dau "most probably, of John de Felton yr. br. of Sir William de Felton, of Edlingham, Northumberland". It is understandable that the following Sir John, presumably one of the heirs of William of Edlingham, could have been identified as his son rather than a younger brother or perhaps more likely given the dates nephew. | |||||||||||||||
