  Except for the descendants of Anthony, the following comes from Vivian who identifies the following George as 'of Godeby'. It is noted that Visitation (Beaumont) identifies his elder brother Richard as 'of Gaudby' and George as of Sussex whilst Visitation (Beamont) shows George as 'of Kent'.

  m. Elizabeth Leigh (dau of Nicholas Leigh of Addington by Ann, dau of Richard Carew of Beddington)
  c. Anthony Beaumont of Glenfield (3rd/4th son)

  (1) Sir Francis Beaumont (bur 11.08.1625)

m2. Thomazin Motton (dau of William Motton) this marriage mentioned by Visitation (Beamont)
2. Thomas Beaumont of Thringston or Thrinkston (near Coleorton, Leicestershire) (a 1495)
  Vivian does not follow this line but shows this Thomas as m. Anne, dau of Harecourt of Stanton Harecourt whereas BEB1841 (Beaumont of Grace Dieu), which starts with his son Thomas, shows that son as married to Anne Harcourt. Visitation (Beaumont) shows this Thomas as married to Anna, dau of _ Harecourt of Stanton Harecourt, and then shows his son as the husband of a dau of Robert Motton of Pickleton. Provisionally, we follow Commoners (vol 4, Beaumont of Barrow-upon-Trent) & BLG1850 (Beaumont of Barrow-upon-Trent) which show the marriages the other way around.
  m. Hawise (probably not Anne) Motton (dau of Sir Robert Motton (or Maton) of Peckleton)
  A. Thomas Beaumont of Thringston (d 1531-2)
  m. Anne Harcourt (dau of ?? Harcourt of Stanton Harcourt)
