The following is supported by Maddison's Lincolnshire Pedigrees (1906, 'Southcote of Blyborough' & 'Southcote (alias Parker) of Blyborough' ) although he does not confirm that George was his son by (Alice) Cole.

Maddison shows Anna Cary as wife rather than mother of Thomas which is supported by TCB (vol 3, 'Southcote or Southcott of Bliborough, p239). | |||||||||||||||
