Family
Erpingham married Joan Clopton of Wickhambrook. It would appear that Joan, the sister of Sir William Clopton, had a sister also named Joan, who after 1404 married Erpingham. It is evident he wed twice because a window opposite his chantry once displayed him and his two wives, and Church records state he is buried with both of his wives.
He sired a daughter by one of these wives, who was also named Joan (or Juliana), who married Sir William Philip of Dennington.
