i. | Thomas Henshaw of Hookland Park (a 1680, d before 1705) | ||||||||||||||
Berry shows this Thomas as father of Philip (dsp) and an unnamed daughter who married Thomas Tipping. However, VCH (Sussex, vol 6, Part 2 (Bramber Rape), 'Shipley: Manors and other estates'), which reports that Hookland Park came to Thomas from Bishop Joseph, suggests that Philip was father of that daughter, as follows. | |||||||||||||||
a. | Philip Henshaw of Hookland Park (d 1753) | ||||||||||||||
VCH (Berkshire, vol 3, 'Parishes: Thatcham'), following the ownership of Henwick, supports the view that Philip was father of Thomas & Anne and identifies Philip's wife as ... | |||||||||||||||

(1) | Thomas Henshaw of Hookland Park & Henwick (d c1783) | ||||||||||||||

B. | Joseph Henshaw, Bishop of Peterborough (b 1608, d 1679, formerly Dean of Windsor) | ||||||||||||||
Surprisingly, Berry does not (in this Henshaw pedigreee) identify Joseph as the Bishop but does identify his wife as Jane, dau of Richard May of Lavane.
