     William died after 1180. He was living in 1180, when there is a reference to William de Ria jr.

     William Ryther was born circa 1157. His relationship to Hamelin de Rie, who held a knight's fee of Henry de Lascy in 1166 has not been ascertained. William, son of Hamelin succeeded. He attested a charter of Basilla de Day with his sons John, Gilbert and Hugh.

William de Riha (brother & heir of William) in 1192 or 1194 gave to Nun Appleton priory a yearly rent of 5 marks for the church of Ryther; and witnessed by John, Gilbert & Hugh, sons of William de Riha, evidently the grantor's sons. The first witness Ralph, archdeacon of Hereford, occurs as a justice of Yorkshire in 1192 and 1194. Early in the reign of Richard I, a controversy about the church of Ryther had ended by a release by the prioress of Nun Appleton of all claim to the advowson, receiving a yearly rent of 5 marks from William de Ryther. The controversy had probably arisen on the succession of William de Ryther the younger, and the charter quoted in the text presumably confirmed the arrangement then made.
     William Ryther and Gilbert Ryther were mentioned in a deed dated 1200. At Michaelmas 1200 Wm de Ria owed 10 marks for having an inquisition in regard to an appeal made by Gilbert son of William de Ria against Adam de St Quintin for the death of Hugh his (Gilbert's) brother.

Later 1 manor in Neuhuse, containing 2 carucates of the land of Chetel and his brothers, were declared to be within the bounds of Ilbert de Lascy. At the survey Hugh held the 3 manors in "Rie" of Ilbert de Lascy; but no further mention is found of him. Walter de Rithre attested n.541 during the period 1144-1150.
William de Rither was succeeded by John his son, who died before 1212, when William de Rither, possibly son of John, granted to Lecia, relict of John de Ryther, 15 markes for her release of dower in the town of Ryther ("Rie"), which she claimed by the endowment of her late husband.
William de Rither was amerced in 1206 for a disseisin and in 1211 he owed 10 marks to be released from prison
Possibly it was the same William de "Rye" who held 1 fee in 1241 which was assigned to the dower of dame Margaret de Lascy. This knight's fee comprised at least 4 carucates in Ryther and 2 carucates in Lead. There are further references to this family in the charters relating to Bradley No.1646, Grant by William de Rither to the nuns of Appleton of 5 marks to be paid yearly in the church of Ryther 1175-1189; from original in St Mary's Tower, York....
     William died before 1212.
     William Ryther and Gilbert Ryther were mentioned in a deed dated 1 July 1212. In Easter term 1212 William put in his place Gilbert de Rie, described as his son & heir, in a plea of dower brought against him by Lecia widow of John de Ria (showing him to have died in his father's lifetime).
Speight states: A third part of the the manor of Ryther was claimed in dower by Lecia, late wife of John de Rie or Ryther, and this lady on her husband's decease had to prove her just dues against the heirs or successors of her husband by entering a writ in the form of a fine at the King's Court at York before the justices in Eyre on 1 July 1212, whereby she yielded all her rights to a third part of the manor of Rie, with apperturnances to William de Rie (no relationship given) on payment to her by the said William of 15 marks of silver. The said William is represented in this suit by Gilbert de Rie, no doubt the one mentioned in the grant of land at Ryther to the canons of Bolton....
