I've removed Alice (Bradshaw-1919) Saint John as her daughter.

Folks, we appear to have removed a husband but not that man's daughter Anne. Who are Anne's parents?

I have added some sources and a bit more info to the bio

This profile refers to "Tempest Genealogy notes". Does anyone have a fuller reference description for these, or a weblink?

I have now removed Thomas Bradshaw as a husband - see comments by me and R J Horace below - and, accordingly, a Bradshaw son.
posted by Michael Cayley
Further to the comment below, it does not look to me as if Alice could have married Thomas Bradshaw who died in 1409. Marlyn Lewis does not giveth wife of Thomas B a first name and ascribes different parents to her. Burke's Extinct & Dormant Baronetcies doesn't give a first name for Thomas's wife, and says her father was William Sherburne - ditto Wotton's Baronetage. I will detach her from Thomas Bradshaw.

Alice Sherburne, wife of Sir John Tempest

Marlyn Lewis, i26868.

Can't find a good source for another husband, and the dates don't work.

The bio seems to be derived from an earlier version of Marlyn Lewis's site, where he inserted the (non-Richardson) Bradshaigh connection by making Bradshaigh the first husband of this Alice, before Sir John Tempest.

He now seems to have realized the dates don't work and changed the site to show Bradshaigh marrying an unknown daughter in the previous generation of Sherburnes, who is therefore the aunt of this Alice. (She still gets the (unsupported) Magna Carta line.)
