Biography

Folkton remains a shadowy figure about whom little is known, although he evidently lived in or near Scarborough. In March 1390 he served on a jury at an inquisition ad quod damnum held in the town regarding a proposed endowment of St. Mary’s church, but he then disappears from the records.1
