| John Nourse of Milton, Buckinghamshire | |||||||||||||||
| 1. | John Nourse of Chilling Place, Oxfordshire (d 1633) | ||||||||||||||
| BLG1847 mentions only John's marriage to Phillipa and that, as she was "dervived from Henry Chichele" (founder of All Soul's College, Oxford), "several of the Nourses, in consequence of their being of Founders' Kin, were admitted Fellows of that College." BLG1847 then mentions only 1 son, John, leaving the impression that Phillipa was his mother. However, Visitation is clear that his mother was his father's 1st wife ... | |||||||||||||||

| Visitation (Oxfordshire) ends (in notes added by the Harleian editor) with mentioning that the next generation comprised 2 sons (twins) and 6 unnamed daughters, the youngest apparently dying at or soon after birth. Richard, the elder son, appears to have died before his mother. 4 of the daughters (Martha, Elizabeth, Susanna & Mary) are named in BEB1841 ('Sidley of Ailesford') and shown to have married as below. VCH reports that both sons dvp and that John was succeeded by his nephew Francis, son of his brother Francis. | |||||||||||||||

However, Visitation (Howard & Crisp 1896, England & Wales, Notes, volume 1, 'Jodrell Pedigree', p112) shows that Francis as son of the Francis who married her aunt Anne. The dates indicate that VCH had confused the generations. | |||||||||||||||
