Biography

From A Who's Who of Tudor Women So-Sy

ELIZABETH SUTTON (1493-1544)

Elizabeth Sutton (sometimes called Dorothy) was one of the seven daughters of Edward Sutton, 2nd baron Dudley (c.1451-January 31, 1531/2) and Cecily Willoughby (c.1463-August 1539). In 1516, she married John Huddleston (c.1497-October 16, 1530), by whom she had John (July 1517-November 4, 1557), Charles, and Eleanor (d.before 1560). Her second husband was Sir Thomas Butler of Bewsey and Warrington, Lancashire (c.1494-September 15,1550). Her stepson, Thomas Butler (c.1513-1579) was contracted c.1523 to marry one Alice Trafford, but in about 1543 he married his stepsister, Eleanor Huddleston, instead. Both Thomas Butlers were spendthrifts. The younger Thomas brought suit in the duchy of Lancaster against his father, claiming that the elder Thomas defrauded him and his wife of rents due them under their marriage settlement. One online genealogy says Elizabeth Sutton, Lady Butler died in Zurich but gives no explanation for this.

  • The Huddleston family, of Yorkshire origin, had by the 15th century made its principal seat at Millom, Cumberland; it was Sir John Huddleston’s grandfather who added a Cambridgeshire connexion by acquiring 12 manors, including two at Sawston, by marriage with a coheir of John Neville, Marquess of Montagu. On his father’s death Huddleston’s wardship was purchased by his mother and her second husband, Sir Thomas Butler of Lancashire, for £200; nothing is known of his education, for he is unlikely to have been the John Huddleston who graduated BA at Cambridge in 1543.3
  • Huddleston had livery of his father’s lands in February 1539. He had already, before November 1538, sued his receiver in Chancery for non-payment of £30 due from his Cumberland and Lancashire property. He sold Raynham manor, Norfolk, in April 1543 and made a settlement concerning Dernford manor, Sawston, in May 1544, on his marriage to Bridget Cotton, half-sister of Sir John Cotton.

  • 'Sutton02'
  • John de Sutton, 'Lord' of Dudley (d c1370/1376)
