Carol Smith of the Matlock branch
has made some exciting speculations about the forebears of the Molesey,
Worcester, Winsford, Randle, Monmouth and Bendigo branches, all of which have
chapters in my book CARDEN OF CHESHIRE.
For instance, it is now almost
certain that the earliest previously known member of the Molesey branch was a
brother of an early member of the Worcester branch. The former branch included
the Lord Mayor of London, the latter the mayor of Worcester. Carol has carried
both these branches back, via Shropshire, to John and Margery who lived in
1600 at Caldecott, Cheshire, near Carden Hall.
Carol has also found fascinating
information about the forebears of the other ‘Cheshire’ branches mentioned
above.
