Answer 1

Parish records usually go back too 1545,Further back it is Wills and

Bishops records.The problem is there are many people with same names in the same area.

Answer 2

You won't find parish records, but since he was a knight you should be able to find other records. Once you go prior to the late 15C you need to start working in a different way. Wills, inquisitions post mortem, land records, manor rolls, basically things you won't get from Ancestry or Findmypast. You become a real researcher! My first suggestion is to cast a broad net with Google; there'll be a lot of dross but some nuggets will come up.
