Biography

William Mildmay was the second son of Thomas Mildmay and his wife, Anne Reade. He married a lady of the Paschall family of Much Baddow who bore him a son, Thomas. ^[1]

Thepeerage.com says that his first wife was Elizabeth, daughter of John Paschall,^[2] and his second whom he married on 7 June 1563 was probably called Annis. ^[3]

William died on 13 February 1571. ^[3]

Date of birth

The date of birth originally entered was 1547 which made him by far the youngest son. Perhaps it was originally before 1547 the death date given for his father. 1547 gave him an age at death of 23, a little young for a man who married twice. Changed the date to about 1520 to make him the second son of his parents as per the visitation.
