Katherine (Angell) Honeychurch was born in 1554 8 years before her "father" William? and 11 years before her "mother" Anna? Believe wrong parents are linked to this Katherine Angell-83.
Does it seem right that William has 4 wives? I don't see much in the way of sources. I'm trying to disentangle the children, but I think wives should be sorted first.
