STROTHER, John (d.1424), of Newcastle-upon-Tyne and Wallington, Northumb.

Family and Education
yr. s. of Alan Strother (d. by 1380) of Kirkwhelpington and Sweethope, Northumb. by his 2nd w. (1) by Nov. 1412, Eleanor; (2) Agnes (d.1459), e. da. of Robert Hebburn, wid. of Richard Dalton (d.c.1422) of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, s.p.C139/14/15; CP25(1)181/15/12; Test. Ebor. ii. 234-7. The genealogy given by J. Hodgson, Hist. Northumb. ii. (1), 254-5, omits all details of Alan Strother’s first marriage, and mistakenly describes his daughter as his wife. Hodgson is also wrong in his assertion that Mary, the widow of Sir William Swinburne, married Strother as her second husband (ii (1), 232). She was, in fact, married while very young, in 1351, to Henry Strother’s son, Sir John, a kinsman of the MP (Northumb. RO, Swinburne (Capheaton) ms, 1/79).
