Thomas II is to be distinguished from his kinsman, Thomas Beville of Denton, the elder, a tax collector for Hunts. in 1419, and the latter’s son and namesake, who held office as coroner there until his death in, or before, October 1424 (CCR, 1422-9, p. 174). It was the latter who joined with our Member in 1409-10 to act as a co-feoffee for John and Agnes Beville of Chesterton (Vis. Hunts. 117). They too had a son named Thomas, who was considerably younger than the shire knight. The three main branches of the Beville family settled respectively at Wood Walton, Denton and Chesterton, and can usually be distinguished from each other without much difficulty.
