| m2/p. Mary Darcy (dau of Thomas Darcy of Tolleshunt) | |||||||||||||||
| By showing their children connected by wavy rather than solid lines, Visitation, which identifies the above Elizabeth as "his only da. and heir", indicates that the following children were illegitimate, presumably born before their marriage. Visitation identifies their elder son as Richard of Woodrising, as do the Copley records, but BP1934 identifies him as Richard of Horsham St. Faiths (but then jumps to Sir Robert, the principal Secretary of State). | |||||||||||||||

Thanks to a contributor (DCS, 01.11.13) for drawing that to our attention. Visitation identifies Sir Thomas's wife as Ann, dau of Sir Thomas Hawes, Sergeant-at-law. We suspect that she was in fact ... | |||||||||||||||

| Visitation ends with this generation. BP1934 identifies the great-great-great-grandson of Richard of Horsham St. Faiths as the undermentioned Sir Robert, indicating that there were two intervening generations. | |||||||||||||||
