Notes for ADAM DE BOOTHES:
"Adam [1] DeBoothes, the paternal ancestor of the distinguished Booth Family, was, as his name indicates, descendant of a Norman family of rank who came over to England with William the Conqueror about the year 1066 and settled in the county palatine of Lancaster, where his son William was living in 1275. He is supposed to have been born about the year 1200."
