Markham 1: Markham of Becca Hall, Markham of Coatham, Markham of Markham, Markham of Ollerton / Alberton
Visitation and BEB1841 begins this family with Sir Alexander de Markham, Constable of the Castle of Nottingham in the time of King Henry III 1216-1272. Commoners believes that he lived in the time of Henry II 1154-1189. More likely is www.nottshistory.org.uk by Rev. A.E. Briggs on East Markham Church which supports the latter.

Ma25. Claron, tenant in West Markham a 1088
Ma24 ?? de Markham probably father or grandfather of ...
Ma23. Sir Alexander de Markham, Constable of the Castle of Nottingham a temp Henry II who r. 1154-1189
There is some disagreement on various details of the next few generations. Visitation names Sir Alexander's son as John, father by Issabell of Robert of Markham father of 3 daughters, John father of Robert, father of the John who married Joane Bothomsell and Richard dsp. BEB1841 identifies Sir Alexander's son as Alexander, grandfather of the John who married Joan Bothomsell. Commoners identifies Sir Alexander's son as Sir Richard father, by Cecilia Lexington, of Robert, father of the John who married Joan Bothomsell. We follow the above-mentioned article by Rev. A.E. Briggs, adding various details from Visitation.
