SUTTON, Hamon II (d.1467), of Lincoln.

Family and Education
2nd s. and h. of Hamon Sutton I*; yr. bro. of Robert*. m. Agnes, Her family is unknown but the will of Hamon’s brother Robert, dated 18 Mar. 1452, raises the possibility that she was a Babington. Robert bequeathed to his sister ‘Babyngton’, his ‘yong gray Aumbelyng stagg’, and it may be that he was referring to his sister-in-law: Lincoln Diocese Docs. (EETS, cxlix), 58. It is, however, much more likley that he is describing a blood sister who married into the Babington fam., and that our MP’s own marriage did not take place until after he had fallen heir to the Sutton estate. 1s. 1da.
