Notes for Joan Littleton
Probably, but not certainly the dau of this William; from Burke's Extinct Peerages, for Aston:
"Sir John Aston m. Joan, only child of Sir William Littleton, of Frankley, co Worcestershire, by whom he acquired the manors of Wanlip, in Leicestershire, and Tixall, co Stafford."
On the other hand DNB indicates that Sir William, son of Sir Thomas in the latter's article, was the ancestor of a long line of Littletons...
