[edit]The Sir Edward (sometimes Edmund) SUTTON, Lord Dudley who died in about 1485 is often called the 2nd Baron Dudley, only because his father was the first in the family to adopt the name Dudley. The Baronial Suttons descend from John Sutton (b 1286) whom initially inhereted the title by the right of his wife Margaret de Somery.
Thus the terms Baron and lord are sometimes misplaced.
Sir Edward may thus also be refered to as the sixth Baron Dudley (b: 1459 d: 31 Jan. 1531/3).

Parliament?
[edit]The article stated that Sutton was a MP from 1492 to 1529, but does not state for where. However, he does not have an entry in the 1509-1554 volume of the History of Parliament, either under "Dudley" or "Sutton" (although his half-brother does).
Looking at the dates, I think if he succeeded John Sutton, 1st Baron Dudley, his grandfather, he must have held a barony from 1487 onwards - so presumably he attended Parliament as a baron in the House of Lords, not an MP in the Commons? I've removed the refs to him being an MP. Andrew Gray (talk) 10:28, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
