    Notes 
    • Radulphus (Ralph) de Barton was living in County York, England, during the time of King Henry II (1154-1189).

      The lineage described was documented by Joseph Earle Steadman in his 1987 Barton-Stedman Genealogy and was contained in the so-called Barton-Stedman Memoir compiled by John Stedman of Bath, County Somerset, England, and privately printed in 1857.  The lineage was authentically proved, and passed inspection by the British College of Arms.

      The writer of the memoir states that "barton" is a Saxon word, and the subject family "doubtless assumed its name from a village near old Walton in the West Riding of Yorkshire, England, where they were probably located before or at the period of the Norman conquest."  Though the Domesday book mentions no person of the name "Barton" living in that locality, the family soon emerged from obscurity and took rank among the magnates of the land.  A supposed branch of this family existed in the old French provinces of Bretagne (Brittany) and Normandy, where they were known as "De Barton" and bore the same arms: "Gules, annulets Or", meaning "a shield of red color with small rings of gold color depicted thereon."

      The lineage shown in the memoir mentions but few dates of birth and death for the persons named therein; however, each person is related to an event which pertained to himself.  In the following listed generations, only shown is the direct line of descent from Radulphus (Ralph) de Barton, the first known ancestor to Alexander Barton who changed his name to Charles Stedman.
