About Hugh de Skelton

According to this single source, there's no ancestry before this Hugh.
Parker, F. H. M. (1912) “The Development of Inglewood, and an Account of the Skeltons of Armathwaite and the Restwolds of High Head,” in Collingwood, W. G. (ed.) Transactions of the Cumberland & Westmorland Antiquarian & Archæological Society. Kendal, Cumbria, UK: Cumberland and Westmorland Antiquarian and Archaeological Society, pp. 11–19. Available at: Google Books.

  • Parker indicates Hugh had a son named John who .m. 1st Alice (widow of Geoffry Tilliol) then m. 2nd Sigreda of unknown parentage.
  • The source also mentions a son Thomas whose mother was Alice, not Sigreda.
  • One of two existing non-MP Geni profiles may apply as Alice's 1st husband.
  • I leave it to others to determine validity of the source and relationships. Parker's work alone is insufficient.
  • As of 12 Sep 2022, there are no extant sources confirming Parker's Skelton lineage per Hugh, his son John, and John's possible two wives.. – Ken Shelley
