Origin of Robert Booth

Early American Silver in The Metropolitan Museum of Art

"A grant of arms was made August 16, 1632 to Asshton of Shepley co. Lancaster....who must be accounted the ancestor of the Asshetons of Pennsylvania."
It also notes he was a kinsman of William Penn.
Seems like finding who the recipient of the arms was will be the identity of the father of Robert Assheton.

Above info meant as a place to research Robert Assheton and create profile and to link origin of Robert Booth. Booth and Assheton families intermarried in Cheshire. Both families descendants of Marcher land owners.
