    • Notes 
      • Is this the correct "Richard Howe".
        Will of Richard Grobham Howe Knight And Baronett Great Wishford, Wiltshire 19 December 1701 August 1703
        Mentions son in law Richard Chandler Esq. brother Charles Howe Esq. Sir Augustine Palgrave and Dame Ann his wife, my daughter, son Richard Howe Esq.

        ?
        James Clayton III (born 1651) was Clayton's only son. He was matriculated at the University of Oxford from Merton College (where of course his father was Warden) at the age of 15 on 22 June 1666. He married Elizabeth Howe of Wiltshire, daughter of Sir Richard Howe. Their first daughter lived only a few hours: the Merton College baptismal register for 14 April 1680 reads: "Anne dau. of James Clayton Esqu. was bapt. as soon as 'twas borne, about one or two in the morn. Died the same day"; and the stone slab shown below in Merton College chapel reads: "Here lyeth the body of Anne Clayton daughter of James Clayton Esqr who dyed April ye 15th 1680."
        James's wife Elizabeth died in childbirth a year later, and was buried beside her first daughter Anne in the north part of the outer chapel. The white marble slab shown below in Merton College chapel reads: "Here lieth the body of Elizabeth Clayton ye wife of James Clayton esqr and daughter of Sr Richard Grobham Howe of Wishford in ye County of Wilts Baronet who died April 7th 1681".
