English Baron
Sir John de Sutton IV (6 December 1361 – 10 March 1396) is the 3rd Baron Sutton of Dudley , and heir of Dudley Castle . He was the son of Sir John de Sutton III , 2nd Lord of Dudley , and Katherine de Stafford, youngest daughter of Ralph de Stafford, 1st Earl of Stafford .[ 3] At the time of his father's death, John IV was a minor whose wardship and marriage was granted to Richard FitzAlan, 11th Earl of Arundel . During the fifth year of Richard II of England , 350 marks[ 6] was paid to Sir Philip le Spencer , to be a guardian over John IV with the arrangement of marriage to his daughter, Alice.[ 7] She died in 1392 without issue. John married secondly to an unknown Joan[ 9] (d. April 1408), by whom Sir John de Sutton V succeeded as heir.
