| The following comes from Commoners & FMG except that Commoners just mentions Thomas without showing anything about his family. Visitation (Leicestershire) mentions just Robert & Thomas and follows Robert's line but not Thomas's. 'DerbyGB' mentions just Robert & Thomas but follows both their lines. FMG supports most of the following, following Thomas's line albeit not identifying his wife (who is named by 'DerbyGB'). | |||||||||||||||
| b. | Thomas Burton | ||||||||||||||
| m. Elizabeth Shaw (dau/heir of Robert Shaw of the Hill) | |||||||||||||||
| (1) | John Burton of (Totley in) Dronfield, Derbyshire ## shown here by 'DerbyGB' & FMG, possible alternative ancestry shown below ## | ||||||||||||||
| m. Elizabeth Revell (dau of Richard Revell of Stannington) | |||||||||||||||
| c. | Catherine Burton shown by Visitation as of previous generation | ||||||||||||||
| m. _ Miller of Lee, Wiltshire | |||||||||||||||
| d. | Mary Burton shown by Visitation as of previous generation | ||||||||||||||
| m. John Wakefield of Castle Gresley | |||||||||||||||
| e.+ | other issue - Ralph, Richard of London, Margaret (d unm) | ||||||||||||||
| ii. | William Burton (dsp) | ||||||||||||||
| iii. | Modevina (Mudwynne or Mary) Burton | ||||||||||||||

| m. John Wilnes of Melburne | |||||||||||||||
| 2. | Richard Burton of Chesterfield (a 1465) | ||||||||||||||
| m. Anne Barnesley (dau of Robert Barnesley of Yorkshire) | |||||||||||||||
| Commoners mentions Richard, identifying him as ancestor of Thomas, Sheriff of Derbyshire in 1628, and Francis, Sheriff in 1666. That would appear to support Visitation (Derbyshire, 1662-4, 'Burton of Dronfield') in showing John of Dronfield below. 'Hallamshire' (used for the continuation) supports this also. However, as reported above, we follow 'DerbyGB' & FMG in showing that John above. | |||||||||||||||
| A. | John Burton of Totley in Dronfield (a 1510) | ||||||||||||||
| m. Elizabeth Shaw (dau/coheir of Robert Shaw of the Hill) | |||||||||||||||
| i. | John Burton of Totley in Dronfield, Derbyshire ## shown here by Visitation (Derbyshire, 1662-4, 'Burton of Dronfield'), alternative ancestry shown above ## | ||||||||||||||
| m. Elizabeth Revell (dau of Richard Revell of Stanington) | |||||||||||||||
