Notes - Some state that John died without issue and that his younger brother Nicholas inherited Clayton from John in 1488 as a result. Nicholas did, according to Burke's Peerage, hold Clayton, and had another son John, who held Clayton. But the younger John was born too late to be Elizabeth's father. The John Byron who d. in 1488 seems to be the only likely choice, with no explanation as to why Elizabeth did not inherit Clayton.
