Notes for: Richard 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 him the pedigree says "Richard Wycliffe: living 2 Henry VII [1486]." He was married, but his wife is not mentioned. His son is mentioned as "John fil Richard Wycliffe."
