| Commoners provides the first few generations of this family but it should be noted that the family web site referred to below disagrees with much of it. This leaves us with somewhat of a quandary as we are impressed by that web site but, in the absence of detailed analysis of how it sourced its information, feel obliged to give some precedence to Commoners & Visitation even though we know that they are not always reliable. By following Commoners (& Visitation) for some generations, and the family site on others, the following represents something of a compromise and so may not be fully accurate. Commoners starts with ... | |||||||||||||||

| (A) | Thomas Bayntun of Falston or Faulston (b c1300, d 28.05.1358) Visitation

& Visitation both show Thomas's son/heir as John "of the county of
Wilts" and father of Nicholas (who married Joan Roche) by Helen, dau of
Sir John Fitz Ellis. The family web site, supported by BE1883, shows the
next few generations as follows:

| 1. | Sir John Bayntun of Faulston, Sheriff of Wiltshire (b 1407, d c1447) Commoners
show John's wife as Jane, dau of Sir Richard Dandeleigh. Visitation shows
her as Jane, sister of John Dandeley but with connections which indicate
confusion with the Dudley family. Note that the family web site shows his
grandmother as Joan Daundeley which may have given rise to the confusion.
The family site & BE1883 identify her as ...
