Several Perrots lived in Yorkshire. This branch is related to the Worcestershire Perrott family. It was putatively started by John, Merchant of London, who was reported by Nash (1781) to have moved to Yorkshire with an archbishop. However, a John Perrotte appears in the record as early as 1519, when he was listed as a Precentor of York (Drake, 1786).

The dates suggest John was a son of Roger and Elinor from Worcestershire (Perrott 1988). However, other possibilities cannot be excluded (Perrett 2003):

  • Barnwell reported John to be another son of Robert and Isabell Langdall Parrott of Oxford.
  • A nephew of the above Robert, from an undocumented brother
  • The John who is mentioned in the 1571 will of Rhys Perrott, son of Sir Owen
  • A Roger Perret from Luton, Bedfordshire, who mentions sons John and Humphrey in his 1535 will

    Below is the family tree reconstructed as best possible based on the available information. One descendant became one of the Barons of the Exchequer, and used the usual Perrot arms. Note that there are still several contemporaneous Perrotts in the area. It is till unknown whether they were from this family or not.

      1. John Perrot was born in 1550 and died in 1603 in London at age 53.

      General Notes: -- Merchant of London

      [PSOC-1988-5(3);76-79-Additional-Data-Since-Barnwell's-Perrott-Notes] has son Richard being 23 in 1607, meaning he was b ca 1584. This means that his most likely parents would be Robert and Elinor Perrot from Worcestershire, who had a son John baptised in 1550. This John would then be right age to father Richard.

      Other possibilities on his parentage are:
      - PSOC 2003. Barnwell reported John to be another son of Robert and Isabell Langdall Parrott of Oxford.
      - A nephew of the above Robert, from an undocumented brother
      - The John who is mentioned in the 1571 will of Rhys Perrott, son of Sir Owen
      - A Roger Perret from Luton, Bedfordshire, who mentions sons John and Humphrey in his 1535 will

      John married Anne.

      The child from this marriage was:

      + 2 M    i. Rev Richard Perrot Sr. was born in 1584 in Lombard Street, London, died on 19 Dec 1641 in York, Yorkshire at age 57, and was buried on 21 Dec 1641 in Church of Holy Trinity, Hull, Yorkshire.

      Richard married Dorothy Harris on 9 Apr 1616. Dorothy was born in 1595 in Huntingdon, died in 1680 in Yorkshire at age 85, and was buried in St. Martin-cum-Gregory.

      General Notes: Thoresby 1715 gives her surname as Harris. Later repeated by Barnwell and Parke, 1860. Her will mentions 'my brother Mr. Charles Vaux,' so the possibility needs to be considered that her maiden name was Vaux until more solid documentation can be obtained.

      "It is rather remarkable, that of the regular parochial clergy in York, not one laid down his preferments, in consequence of the provisions of the Act of Uniformity. The four ministers, whom Calamy reports to have been silenced at that city, Messrs. Bowles, Perrot, Williams, and Calvert, had been appointed during the Protectorate, to officiate in turns, at the Minster and other churches, , and were maintained by the state with honourable stipends; the work was equally divided between them; two were at the Minster, on Lord's days for a month; and two at All-hallows in the Pavement, for the other month, alternately."

      Third Generation (Grandchildren)


      4. Mary Perrott (Richard Sr. (Rev)2, John1).

      General Notes: The wording in Dorothy's will "To my sonne in law W: Simon Sisson to buy him a Ringe forty shillings to his wife Mrs. Anne Sisson to buy her a Ringe twenty Shillings" suggesting that her daugher had died and her son in law had remarried.

      A daughter Mary is mentioned for Richard Perrott in the Osbaldwick prebend records. By process of elimination, Mary is assigned to this daughter, although there may yet have been another daughter.

      "By the turn of the century [1700] York Alderman Andrew Perrrot was prepared to spend £300 to bind his son to a London Barbary merchant rather than seek to train him locally, thus revealing an informed concern at the future of of the town's oversease trade. 84.

      84. Borthwick Institute, prerogative will, Nov. 1702. Little evidence has been found concerning the cost of mercantile apprenticeship at York, although a legal dispute from 1660s records taht the merchant Robert Hilary had been paid £100 for binding Timothy Hawksworth. The dispute suggests that York's failure to train new recruits can in part be linked to the familiar problems of indiscipline among the young- York City archives F8, p 161.

      'Sacred to the memory of George Perrott, Esq. late one of the Honourable Barons of his Majesty's Court of Exchequer, who departed this life on the 28th day of January, 1780, in the seventieth year of his age; by whose death the revenue lost a most noble assertor of its legal rights, the subject of a firm protector against oppression, the public an able and upright minister of justice, and the industrious and infirm poor a steady and comfortable support. To perpetuate her esteem for such amiable qualities, his truly afflicted widow, Mary Perrott, by her last will caused this monument to be erected.' Baron Perrot's widow died in 1784."

      - Frances had been baptised in 1702 at Stockton-on-Tees, County Durham, daughter of James Cooke of Stockton and his wife Frances, daughter of Elizabeth Perrott, the sister of Andrew Perrott, Lord Mayor of York.

      Identification of Andrew's wife's maiden name is based on the will of Rebecca Holman, spinster of Tenterden, Kent -1775. In the will she refers to her niece the wife of the Rev Andrew Perrott and later to Curteis Hale and Sarah Hale her children by her late husband the Reverend William Hale. Curteis Hale went on to witness Andrew's wife. (Thanks to Libby Richardson for the tip).
