Notes for: Miles Wycliffe

The name of this Wycliffe comes from a Wycliffe pedigree in The History of Yorkshire; Wapentake of Gilling West, by Marshall General Plantagenet Harrison (1885). I don't know where Harrison got this information. I can only assume it is guesswork on his part from looking at old records. Harrison's pedigree seems to be the only one that goes back this far; so I will go with it for now.

About this Miles, the pedigree says "Miles de Wycliffe, pad the subsidy 6 Edward III [abt 1333]. Was a man-at-arms in the Scottish wars."
