1382 RICHARD de KNIGHTON

 

1382 RICHARD de KNIGHTON,

(57)    

(Mercer).

Probably identical with Richard, son of Hugh de Knightcote or Knighton, draper, who entered the gild in 1341-2, and a kinsman of Roger de Knightcote, mayor in 1353. He was M.P. for Leic. 1362, 1371 and 1381, and was living in 1393.

Henry de Knighton, historian, canon of Leicester abbey, living in the fourteenth century, is believed to have been a member of this family.
