Biography
Note: He has been thought to be the son of Robert Peyton, but his parentage has been disputed.

Sir John de Peyton Kt., son and heir of Sir Robert by Joan Marney, greatly increased the wealth and consequence of his family, by marrying Margaret, one of the two daughters and coheirs of Sir John Gernon Kt., who had large estates in Essex, Derbyshire, and Northamptonshire, Margaret was thirty-four years of age when her father died, on 13th Jan. 1383-84, and on the partition of his estates had for her share the Manors of East Thorpe and Birch and the Hundred of Lexden in Essex and the Manor of Wicken in Cambridgeshire. This partition took place in 1395 (18 Richard H.), and Sir John Peyton presented in right of his wife to the Rectory of Little Lees in Essex, 19th March 1395-6; (12) but he died soon afterwards, and was buried with his ancestors at Stoke Neyland.
His widow Margaret survived him about sixteen years, and died 6th June 1413, aged sixty-three. She was buried at Wicken, and a monumental slab, with a brass figure on it, still remains in that church.

Biography
RICHARD BRANCH, a woolen draper, settled in Abingdon, Berkshire, England, in the early part of the sixteenth century. He was a man of considerable importance, being for many years head of the Fraternity of the Holy Cross. Originally this Guild had been founded for the dispensation of charity, but a long and active existence, together with ownership of considerable property, had made it the center of the civic life of Abingdon. J. Branch Cabell in "Branch of Abingdon" (pp. 32-37) has given an interesting picture of this organization and of its work.

Richard Branch married Elizabeth Beauforest, daughter of Thomas Beauforest of Deane, Gloucester County. He was buried in the north or Jesus Aisle of St. Helen's Church on 16 September, 1544. His will, dated 27 August, 1544, is as follows:

WILL OF RICHARD BRANCHE OF ABENTON, (CO. BERKS), WOOLENDRAPER, DATED 27 AUGUST, 36 HENRY VIII.

To the high altar of St. Elen's church 21s. to be prayed for.

To Thomas Branche my eldest son a feather bed, a covering with a mitre upon it, and 10s.

To my son William Branche my gown that I had of Mr. Wodword and 10s.

To Thomas Branche my youngest son 20s.

To my son John Branche a black gown lined with St. Thomas wolsted and 10s.

To Margery my daughter a girdle with a dymycent of silver and gilt, a silver spoon, all her grandfather's bequests unto her, a saucer of the new fashion and 20S.

To Marion my daughter a pair of jet beads with silver gawds, a silver spoon, beside the one that Mr. Wodword gave her, and 20s.

If any of my forenamed children die before they come to years of discretion, their parts shall be distributed amongst those that shall then be on live.

Residuary legatee and executrix, my wife Elizabeth. Overseers, Humfrey Bostock and Thomas (blank).

Witnesses: Sir William Druett, brotherhood priest, Richard Maiot, Humfrey Bostoke, Thomas Erle. No Probate. (Archdeaconry of Berks: Register C; 164.)

Children:

Thomas, of London, d. 1565.

William, of Abingdon, d. 1602; from whom the Branches of Virginia descend.

JOHN, of Kent, b. about 1515; d. 1588; from whom the Branches of Massachusetts descend.

Thomas, d. 1545-6, unmarried.

Amy, d. 1540-1, unmarried.
