| a/b. | Richard Nicholetts of The Hill (The Hull) in Eastham, Worcestershire | ||||||||||||||
| Robinson starts with this Richard "son of Roger and grandson of William, all of co. Wigorn.". The above (and the information on his brother John) comes from 'The Genealogist' (vol 1, p233) wich reports on a 'Pedigree of Nicholetts of the Hill ...'. Visitation (1569) suggests that John was the eldest son and Richard the 2nd son. | |||||||||||||||

| m. Beatrix Baylie (d 1591, dau/coheir of William Baylie or Baylies of Hamon's Hall) | |||||||||||||||
| Robinson is confusing here, showing not only Richard but also his brothers Anthony & Charles all as fathers of William, Mary, Elinor, Sarah & Anne. Visitation (1634)& Siddons show Richard as father of William. We presume that he was also father of the other children mentioned by Robinson but it seems reasonable to consider that there is some doubt as to the parentage of William's siblings. | |||||||||||||||
