    • Notes 
      • 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".
