| See the note above. It is a presumption that the following marriage and children, identified by Visitation as the family of the William who did not marry Isabell Keys, should be attributed to Sir Warham. BP1934 merely reports that his ancestors continued at Ulcombe. A good-looking web site 'confirms' the marriage but the connection has yet to be fully confirmed. | |||||||||||||||
