Evidence

from the Deputy Keeper of the Public Records (vol. 26)

40 Hen. 3.  Dutton, Agnes, who was the wife of G. de, against Geoffrey, son of Geoffrey……de Mascy. Dower of lands, &c. in Clifton, Runcore, and Thellwalle.

from Ormerod (3:621):

Geoffry, son of Geoffry de Dutton, seneschal of the said John (1232-40), occurs in a release of Swanus, a villain of Clifton, to Geoffry son of Adam de Dutton, and witnesses the grant of an oratory at Sutton juxta Frodsham. He farther occurs in the Arley charters about the year 1240 as Geoffrey de Dutton lord of Chedle, in a grant by him, of Caldwell in Apilton.

     Sir Geoffrey de Chedle, knt. also occurs in several of the same charters in the reigns of Hen. III. and Edw. I and could not very well be identical with the last Geoffrey, whose widow, Agnes Nechel (according to Leycester), grants to her son Geoffrey de Chedle half Bolinton temp. Hen. III.
