Did old English pewter-maker names like le Peutrer lead to Poytress?

Research question: Were other medieval English people with names built on the pewterer root, like le Peutrer, recorded in London or Middlesex, and did any of them leave descendants whose names look like Poytress?

The records show one medieval bearer of a pewterer-root name: Lambert le Peutrer, who with his wife Lucy released lands in Westminster to the abbot and convent of Vale Royal between 1311 and 1312 ². The facts do not record any other medieval examples in London or Middlesex, and they do not state that Westminster was in Middlesex, so the question of additional recorded people cannot be fully answered. The only Poythress-type name in the facts is Jane Poythress, whose 1615 marriage to Thomas Rolfe was recorded in London ¹³. No fact connects Jane Poythress to Lambert le Peutrer or any other medieval bearer, so descent cannot be shown. The newest fact is from 1615, about four centuries old.
