WAWETON, John (b. by 1339), of Great Staughton and Somersham, Hunts., Basmey, Beds. and Stowe Wythe, Cambs.

Submitted by legacy on
Family and Education
b. by 1339, 4th s. of Robert Waweton of Stowe Wythe by his w. Maud. m. Parnell, prob. 2s, inc. Thomas Waweton, 1da.C1/11/13-14; CP25(1)287/40; Vis. Beds. (Harl. Soc. xix), 198. A great deal of confusion exists over this MP’s pedigree, even within the pages of the VCH where he is described variously as the son of Robert Waweton of Stowe Wythe (Cambs. v. 122), which he was, and of Thomas Waweton of Great Staughton (Hunts. ii. 357), who was actually a more distant kinsman. Nor is there any evidence to support the belief that John Warweton and his distinguished son, Thomas, ’belonged to an off-shoot of the Essex branch of the Waweton family’, at least within the space of three or four generations. It is even harder to accept a second assertion made by the DNB (xx. 736) that our Member was the stepson of John, Lord Tybotot (d.1369), who is said to have married his widowed mother, Elizabeth (sic): for although such a statement appears convincing in the light of Thomas Waweton’s friendship with Sir John (later lord) Tiptoft*, the grandson of Tybotot’s second marriage, it is none the less at odds with all the surviving evidence. Tybotot’s second wife was in fact the widow of Sir John Waweton (d.1346) of Wimbush, Essex, whose son and heir, Sir John, died at some point before 1366, leaving the issue of his two daughters to inherit his estates (CIPM, viii. no. 681; CP, xii (2), 96; P. Morant, Essex, ii. 349, 558).
