Stephen Eyton


Stephen Eyton or Edon, was an English chronicler.
Eyton was a canon of the Augustinian priory of Warter, near Pocklington in the East Riding of Yorkshire. His name may derive from the nearby village of Etton. He wrote a work entitled Acta Edwardi II, whose opening words were Post mortem toti mundo deflendam. John Leland found a copy in the library of Fountains Abbey, but it has not since been identified.
