Notes:

One of the ancestry trees : https://www.ancestry.co.uk/family-tree/person/tree/67065384/person/38232860795/facts has Mary dying in 1645. If that is correct then Gerry's document with Samuel, Anne and Jane cannot be correct as they were born after this date. My question si, the location of her death - Bradford, why not Manchester?

Other Events and Attributes:

Name: Henry Bourghcher
Name: Henry Bowker

Notes:

Possibly the illegitimate son of Anne Bourchier. If this can be proven, then this is the link between the Bourchier and Bowker names, and why Miles Bowker claimed descent from The Earl of Eu and Essex.
However, see http://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/volume/1558-1603/member/bourcher-henry-1598 which indicates that that Henry Bourchier was married to Anne Scott?
This needs to be investigated in more depth, but the lack of evidential records are a hindrance.
