The support from BE1883 starts here. Much of the following was originally shown on 'DZmisc02' providing the connections to Elizabeth Nevill and Sir Edward Osborne but was moved here to be combined with information from BEB1844.

BEB1844 shows John D'Anvers as having 2 daughters called Agnes, one by his first marriage who m. Thomas Baldington and one by his second married 3 times. Visitation shows only 1, by the second marriage married to Sir John Fray or Say. TCP Wenlock indicates that they were the same Agnes who m. 4 times as below. Thanks to a site visitor OWC, 29.10.09 for drawing our attention to the fact that CTG vol 4, p310 mentions marriages 1+2+4 and identifies her daughters by Sir John Fray.
