* . . . . and we find William, seventh Lord Stourton, son of Edward, sixth Lord Stourton and father of the above William Stourton, of Fauntleroy's Marsh, being an overseer, and Roger Fauntleroy, an executor, to the will dated 25th November, 1539, proved [15 Spert] 30th January, 1542, of Sir Nicholas Wadham, of Merryfield, Co. Somerset, knight, who married Jane, daughter of '''Robert Hill, of Houndston, Somerset, by Alice, daughter of John or Jenkyn Stourton''', of Preston, uncle to Sir John, first Lord Stourton, who had married Margery, daughter of Sir John Wadham, of Merryfield, knight. The will of Dame Jane Wadham, widow of Sir Nicholas Wadham, was dated 22nd July, 1557, and proved [29 Wrastley] 31st August, 1557.
*http://www.archive.org/stream/historyofnobleho01mowb#page/83/mode/1up
* From the will of John Stourton, there is very clear evidence of his identity, it is dated 10th November, 1438, and proved 27th January, 1438-9, . . . . All John Stourton's landed property he had previously settled on his daughters, in his lifetime, and when his Inquisition was taken after his death, at Yeovil, in 17 Henry VI., 1439, he was called John Stourton, Esquire, of Preston, not Brimpton, and it was proved and found by the Jurors that he then held no lands, here-ditaments and premises within the County of Somerset, his three daughters, (i) Cecily, wife of Thomas Kuriel, knight, aged 34 years ; (2) Johanna, wife of John Sydenham, Esquire, aged 21 years ; and (3) '''Alice Stourton''', aged 7 years ; were his coheirs at law. These daughters were respectively children by each of his three wives, and the Inquisition is important as deciding the priority of their births. . . . . .
* http://www.archive.org/stream/historyofnobleho01mowb#page/87/mode/1up
* John Stourton married, thirdly, Katherine Payne (f), or Pyne, daughter of Thomas Payne, or Pyne, of Paynshay, Devon, who lived temp. 10 Richard II., by Margery, his wife, daughter and heir of Peter de Yeovilton, or Jenelton, of Speckington, Somerset (}:). . . . . . *http://www.archive.org/stream/historyofnobleho01mowb#page/88/mode/1up/search/Hill
* . . . . By Catherine Payne, or Pyne, (who is mentioned in her husband's will, and whose arms were blended with Stourton and Sydenham in the book plate referred to on page 73,) John Stourton had a daughter and coheir:—
*''' Alice Stourton, who was aged 7 years in 1439, and from her father she inherited Pendomer Manor, &c., under his settlement and entail as before shewn under his name''', which premises were eventually disentailed by her descendant, Henry Daubeney, created Earl of Bridgewater, and sold by him. She married (1) William Daubeney. Lord of Barrington, Co. Somerset, son and heir of Sir Giles Daubeney, knight, and consequently ancestor of Henry Daubeney, created Earl of Bridgewater ; and '''(2) Robert Hill, of Houndston Manor, Co. Somerset, who died in 1493, seised of that Manor, &c., his arms, impaling those of Stourton, were setup in Dunster Church, (Harl. MS., 1559, fo. 235.)''' Hoare in his copy of the College of Arms pedigree, says she married, i. — William Daubeney, Esq., and '''2.— Robert Hill''', although Edmondson only gives the first husband, but the Visitation for Co. Worcester confirmed Hoare, calling her father Jenkin Stourton. Harleian Manuscript 1074, likewise supported these marriages, although wrongly stating her mother to have been Alice Peny, her father's second wife, but this was corrected by the old pedigree of 1509, which added that her first husband was Lord of Baryngton. We find that on the north wall of Little Cheney Church, Co. Dorset, there was erected a monument to the memory of her son, George Daubeney, on which the arms of Daubeney, Stourton, de Bosco, Moyne, &c., appeared on the dexter side. '''Her daughter''', Jane Hill, married Sir Nicholas Wadham, of Merryfield, Co. Somerset, knight, who by his will, of 25th Nov., 1539, proved [15 Spert] 30th Jan., 1542, appointed Roger Fauntleroy an executor, and Lord Stourton an overseer ; and the will of his wife, Dame Jane Wadham, was made 22nd July, 1557, proved [29 Wrastley] 31st August, 1557. We read under Charles, 8th Lord Stourton, of William Fauntleroy and Cecily, his wife, Lessees of Stourton Manor, being illegally disturbed in their possession of that property by the action of this Agnes Rice, whose mother afterwards married the above Henry Daubeney, created Earl of Bridgewater. All the authorities shew that Sir John Stourton, created Baron of Stourton, Co. Wilts., married Margery, daughter of Sir John Wadham, of Merryfield, Co. Somerset, knight.
