Upon death of Sir Owen and his son Robert, the teenage Thomas and his younger brother Edward, "became, upon purchase from the Crown, the wards of Maurice, Lord Berkeley.

• Picton of Newport, Nevern and Whitechurch (Eglwyswen) in Cemais, 1300-1700, researched and provided by Brian Picton Swann, posted by Owen Picton:

"John PICTON had the following children:
"i. ALICE PICTON. Alice Picton died on 31 March 1441 at Robeston. E 210/723 is a grant in tail by John Picton, Esquire, to Thomas Perrot, son of Stephen Perrot, Esquire, and Alice his wife, daughter of the grantor, of all his messuages, lands, and rents &c. in Bikton in R[h]os, at a yearly rent of two greyhounds (leporarios), Monday after the conversion of St. Paul, 9 Henry V [1422]. Perhaps this was a grant in consequence of his daughter's marriage to Thomas Perrot. On 8 September 1432 Thomas Fort granted to Thomas Perrot and his wife Alice all his lands in Carmarthen and the Lordship of Llanstephan [E 210/4382 and E 210/4466]. Perhaps also, as a consequence of his daughter's death in 1441, John Picton of Carew granted to Thomas Perrot "all his messuages in Newport in Kemes, Molygrove, Dyffryngwynne and elsewhere in Kemes"... [E 210/4968, 20 Henry VI, 1442]. Alice Picton was married to Sir Thomas Perrot/Parrot [son of Stephen Perrot and Ellen Howell] and would appear to be John Picton's only surviving daughter and heiress at her death. Sir Thomas Perrot/Parrot from Haroldston died on 10 April 1460 in Bristol. See also Perrot notes, or some account of the various branches of the Perrott family, Edward Lowry Barnwell, London, J. Russell Smith, 1867. Alice Picton and Sir Thomas Perrot/Parrot had the following children:

"a. William Perrot/Parrot. He was married to Jane Wogan. William Perrot and Jane Wogan had the following children:

"i. Owen Perrot/Parrot. He was later knighted and had an Inqusition Post Mortem into his death, 14 Hen. VIII [1523]."

"Class E 210/1570 records Thomas Perrot, Esquire to John Perrot his brother, giving a Letter of Attorney to Rees Vachan [Vaughan] and Thomas Picton to deliver seisin of his lands, etc., in the Barony of Llanstephan, 2 Edward IV [1463]. At present it is not possible to identify this Thomas Picton nor Thomas and John Perrot. This presumably relates to the former Fort lands at Llanstephan."

"Again the survival of so many early deeds is entirely a stroke of coincidence. They owe their existence to the career and fate of Sir John Perrot (1529-1592). Sir John Perrot had a distinguished career, which can be followed in the pages of the Dictionary of National Biography and elsewhere. He died whilst imprisoned in the Tower of London in 1592, awaiting execution, and his estates in Wales were forfeited to the Crown. Hence a collection of early deeds and papers relating to the Perrot, Picton, and other families connected with the Perrots, came ultimately into the custody of The National Archives at Kew."
