Notes - We have omitted the Traffords shown as preceding this Richard in, for instance, the Dugdale visitation of 1664-65 (citation details below). As J. Horace Round pointed out in a series of exchanges with W.H.B. Bird in the first decade of the 20th century, while this family and its surname certainly go back to the 12th and 13th centuries, some of the earlier names and connections claimed in the standard family pedigrees are implausibly fanciful.
