Biography

Gregory was the son of Robert Cary of Clovelly and his third wife Margaret.

On 11 April 1518, he was named as a legatee in the will of his father Robert. [1] On April 12 1535 his father made a further detailed settlement, giving Gregory lands in Clovelly and the surrounding area. [2]

In 1537, Gregory was involved in legal matters relating to the manor of Okehampton. [3]

What happened to him after 1537 is at this stage unknown.

There is no evidence for a son called Richard in this generation. Most sources agree that the two sons of Robert and Margaret were Robert and Gregory. I am going to change Richard to Gregory as a potentially easier way of sorting out the tangle rather than disconnecting Richard and leaving him floating with no family.
