John Paston (10 October 1421 – 21 or 22 May 1466) was the son of William Paston Justice of the Common Pleas and Agnes Berry. After he succeeded his father in 1444 his life was marked by conflict occasioned by a power struggle in East Anglia between William de la Pole 1st Duke of Suffolk and John Mowbray 3rd Duke of Norfolk and by his involvement in the affairs of his wife’s kinsman Sir John Fastolf.
