John le Bret

• General Notes
  • Peter de Kirketon (d 1300) married Elizabeth, daughter of Sir William Woodthorpe; they were the parents of Sir Robert de Kirketon (d c1303) who married Beatrice de Driby and had a daughter, Alice (d 1344), wife successively to Sir John Loudham (d c1318) and John le Bret.  Sir John Loudham (d c1318) had a daughter Joan (d 1366), and she married Sir Geoffrey de Staunton (d 1369) - the grandson of Sir William and Isabel de Staunton (above). If Sir Geoffrey's grandmother was a de Kirketon, as was his wife Joan's mother, then (absent a consanguinity issue) those two Kirketon families cannot have been closely related.  MA-R .
