- Notes:
=== Richard succeeded his father before 2nd ===
Richard succeeded his father before 2nd of Edward II, 1308. He was also Lord of Clayton. King Edward II, by charter dated at York on June 28, 1308, grants to him and his heirs free warren in all their demesne lands in Clayton, Boterworth and Rostin in Lancashire; Cadenay, Walesby, Ulsby and Croxton in County Lincoln; Hudre-feld, Hunshelf and Holleigh, County York. In a deed without date he grants to Sir James Byron, Knight, his son, his Manor of Alton, together with the reversion of all lands and tenements which Lady Alice de Byron, grandmother of the said James, held in dower, by gift of John, his father. He served in County Lincoln in the Council in the 4th of Edward III, 1331until his death in 1347.
=== Sir Richard Byron, Lord of Cadney, Linc ===
Sir Richard Byron, Lord of Cadney, Lincolnshire and Lord of Clayton, Lancashire.... Sir Richard de Buroun in 1316 resided in Lancashire and York. An earlier Richard of the 5th generation had a son Sir James of Cadeney. Because Richard of the 8th generation is described as 'Lord of Cadney' it would seem that Sir James' heirs had died out. Sir Richard Byron is shown on the genealogical chart by Edmondson and Segar to have died in 1346 while Thoroton's chart shows him as dying in the '21st year of Edward III' (1348). There is a difference of opinion about Sir Richard's sons. Thoroton shows them born of Sir Richard's second wife, Elizabeth, while Edmondson's chart shows them to be born of his first wife Agnes. The author is inclined to follow Thorton's chart prepared one hundred hears earlier when older records might still have been available. John, second son of Richard and Elizabeth, is shown as a cleric in Thoroton's chart.
