  === Life Sketch ===
  William FitzAdam was born in 1195. He passed away in 1252.
  
  The second William de Bretton witnessed a Whitley deed about 1230. “William son of Alan de Witteley, gave to God and St. Mary and the monks of Bellaland (Byland Abbey) 2 bovates of land in the town of Witteley with the tofts and crofts to the said bovates belonging and one rood of land in the territory of the said towne, etc all which they had to farm of Alan, my father. Witnesse Henry Wallensis : Rfe de Horbury : Adam de Preston : William de Bretton : Adam de Holland : Rafe de Wombewell, “ Etc A.J. volune viii
  
  The line of Beaumont’s at or near Huddersfield commenced, as has been said, with William de Beaumont’ of 1200 who as William Fitz Adam received the gift of, or was confirmed in land at Kexborough by Roger de Montbegan. This land may be included in “all other places” when William de Bretton was selling land to the Dronsfields. Roger de Montbegan’s son, John, enfeoffed the second William de Beaumont in land at Whitley. In 1218, this William was called upon to defend his claim to land in Quarmby which had been given to his father A.J. vol viii, 519 : it is said that this second William Beaumont married Alice de Quarmby A.J, vol. vii, 136. The third William de Beaumont had by Elizabeth............., who was a widow in 1294, four sons, William, Richard, John and Adam : The third son as John de Beaumont was living in Lepton in 1297, (Record series, vol. xvi 90) The eldest son, the fourth William de Beaumont, most probably married the daughter and heir of Richard of Foss Crosland, as he was in possession of property at Crosland in 1294-95 (A.J. vol. viii 503) The list for Crosland does not, unfortunately, appear in the lay subsidy for 1297, 25 E. I. but the name appears in the Nomina Villarum of 1315
