| Maddison shows that there was no issue by this marriage and shows the following Frances connected by dotted line under George's marriage to Frances Meres with a note that, whilst Frances is mentioned under the Nelthorpe pedigree, "There is no trace of (her marriage to James Nelthorpe) in the Whichcot pedigree." Thanks to a contributor (KB, 09.09.15) for reporting that a Lincolnshire church memorial shows that Frances, wife of James Nelthorpe, was of this marriage. | |||||||||||||||
