Notes Payments of the sheriff's aid for Norton recorded in Tutbury Honor accounts. This could be Norton in Leicestershire just over the border from Staffordshire. Twycrosse is mentioned in the document with Norton. Twycross in Leicestershire is next to Norton Juxta Twycross. A Staffordshire parish has to be selected, so Tutbury has been entered.
