Notes - According to VCH Durham (volume 3, "Coatham Stob"), he "may have been" the son of Robert Conyers who succeeded to Cotham Stob in 1323, himself the son of John Conyers "of Stubhouse" who "made a grant of land in Cronkley (Northumberland) in 1306." This John de Conyers was apparently a son of Scolastica, second daughter of Ralph de Coatham who died in 1298 holding Coatham Stob and land in Northumberland.
