Sir William av Plumpton, ridder

Williiam døde på skafottet i 1405 for å deltatt i et opprør pisket opp av hans onkel Richard, erkebiskopen av York, bror av hans mor.

William er beskrevet av en moderne historiker som en modig og dristig ridder."

Erkebiskop av York Richard le Scrope ledet et mislykket opprør mot Henrik IV i Nord-England (1405). Scrope og andre opprørsledere henrettet. Dette var det andre av tre forsøk på å styrte Henrik IV ledet av Henry Percy, jarlen av Northumberland og hans allierte. Percy flyktet igjen til Skottland etter hans tap i slaget av Shrewsbury (1403).
