Visitation (Hampshire, 1530+1575+1622-34, Moore), which provides the line of Edward's son John, shows Edward & Thomas as sons of ?? of Larden (by a dau of Bruerton of Bruerton) son of ?? of Larden (by _ Aston) son of William of Larden (by Jane, dau of William Barkley of Cressage) son of William of Larden. Visitation (Shropshire, 1623, Moore of Larden and Mounslowe) contradicts part of this, showing Edward & Thomas as sons of William of Larden son of William of Larden (by _ Brereton) son of Richard of Larden (by Elizabeth, dau of _ Corbett of Lee) son of William of Larden (by Jane, dau of William Barkley. Visitation (Shropshire), which provides part of the the line of Edward's son Thomas, also provides the family/descendants of Rcihard, 2nd son of Richard by Elizaberth Corbett. Visitation (Surrey, 1530+1572+1623, Moore), which provides part of the the line of Edward's son Thomas, shows Edward & Thomas as sons of William of Larden (by Jane, dau of William Barkley of Cressage) son of William or Larden & brother of Richard, ancestor of Moore of Mylly Chape. The connection shown above comes from BLG1952.
