[N2804] The spelling of her name is taken directly from her father's Will of 1541, which is lacking in detail where she and sister Knoller are concerned. It is speculative that she and sister Knoller were among the oldest children. The impression conveyed by their father's Will is that both had already married; and it appears both may have already been deceased. This is based on the fact that neither was to receive anything; but each of their children was to receive four ewes.
