Geoffrey De BIRON

The Byrom family descends from here.

Information obtained from Maximilian Geneology http://peterwestern.f9.co.uk/ * He is listed as Geoffrey De Byron, wife Edith, father Roger De Buron, and mother of Nichola De Verdun.

Geoffrey de Biron, younger son of Roger and Nicola de Buron, married before 1210, Edith...Records show Geoffrey, the father, at Whalley Abbey in 1190. The next record is in 1210 when he and his wife Edithsold land in Bilborrow. He died before 1246 when his son Geoffrey sued de Wyrkell. Geoffrey must have come into Glazebrook lands thro9ugh his wife because for the next three generations the Byroms added de Glazebrook to their names.
