This Note follows and supplements response to articles on the topic by Reichel, Howard and Drake, appearing in volume VI of the journal. It introduces information on its author’s ancestry. The article, from a copy of a rare and much sought-after journal can be downloaded from the Internet Archive. Google has sponsored the digitisation of books from several libraries.

Note 22. ANCIENT HERALDIC GLASS IN SLAPTON CHURCH (VI., par. 137, p. 149; pars. 173 and 174, p. 187; par. 200, p. 215 ; and par. 227, p. 253). - Since writing my query, par. 200 (in which, by the way, there is a misprint, Wm. de Moreton being of West Putford, not Fulford), I have found in Tristram Risdon's Note Book, p. 171, in his list of Knights of Devon of the time of Richard II, the following: - 

John St. Awbin, knight, sonne of Sir Thomas St. Awbin, 7 Ric. II ; died 8 Richd. II. 
Phillip de Brian, knight: he married St. Awbin's widow, 8 Richard II.
William Brian of Torre Brian, knight, 10 Ric. II. 

On page 145 of the Note Book, Risdon states that Lord Guy de Brian had "three sonnes, Sir Guy, Sir Phillip and Sir William, which all died before their father."
