Biography
Lawrence's Christening is recorded in the Walberton Parish archives giving a date of 25 November 1593 and listing his father as Rychard Cleton.[1]
From research done by Hansen, Jones, and Winton-Misch, we have also the following details:
“Rychard Cleton of the town of Walberton, Sussex, England ... appears in the parish registers of Walberton when he married Dorothy “Burkenshall” (more typically spelled Birkenshaw), on 24 January 1582. Dorothy was buried at Walberton on 15 January 1613. Richard Cleyton was buried there on 13 January 1615.
"The church registers indicate the baptisms of the following children:
- i. Richard Clayton - Baptized 24 Apr 1583, Richard Jr. married Elizabeth Peter at Walberton on 16 Dec 1610.
- ii. John Clayton - Baptized 26 Jan 1586, John died at age 13 and was buried at Walberton on 7 Jun 1597, “son of Richard Cleton.”
- iii. William Clayton - Baptized 24 Feb 1589 at Walberton.
- iv. Lawrence Clayton - Baptized 25 Nov 1593. No further information. "[2]
