    • Notes 
      • I am seeking information on ROGER YORKE, of Wellington, Somerset, and Exeter, Devon, who was a serjeant at law and justice of the peace for Somerset, Devon and Wiltshire. He was active in the 1520's and
        1530's. He died in 1536-7. He was married (lst) to ELEANOR LUTTRELL, daughter of Sir Hugh Luttrell, of Dunster, Somerset, by his first wife, Margaret Hill. They had four children. He was married (2nd) before 1532, to Margaret _____, widow of Anthony Erneley and Henry Milborne, Esq., of Laverstock, Wiltshire. They had no children.

        Does anyone know anything about either Roger York or his wife, Eleanor Luttrell's family? All for now. Derrick Smith.
