Notes

The Stapletons of Yorkshire were originally from Richmondshire, their name deriving from Stapleton-on-Tees, a village between Richmond and Darlington. Nicholas de Stapleton, a judge on the King's Bench, died in 1290 leaving a son Miles de Stapleton, by his wife, Margaret Bassett, who was buried at Drax. The Stapletons settled in Yorkshire in this generation and several branches of the family developed at Carlton and Bedale, and then Wighill and Myton. Miles de Stapleton was the common ancestor (Foster, Pedigrees; Dictionary of National Biography; Chetwynd-Stapylton, 'The Stapletons of Yorkshire', pp. 66-7; Robinson, Carlton Towers, p.10).
