Biography

Sir John Pakington ((d. 1551) married Anne Dacres, who "was the daughter of Henry Dacres of Mayfield, Staffordshire. . ."

TudorPlace site has Sir John Pakington marrying once, making Anne (Dacres) Pakington the mother of Ursula and Bridget. Oxford-Shakespeare.com concurs. Michael Hodgetts (HARVINGTON HALL, 1998) does not.

"He married Anne, seemingly daughter of Henry Dacres, sheriff of London and widow of Robert Fairthwayte, and perhaps also one Tychborne. She died in 1563."

The will of Sir John Pakington (TNA PROB 11/34, ff. 233-4), dated 16 Aug. 1551, proved 30 Oct. 1551. (Nina Green, at oxford-Shakespeare.com, provides copy and comment.)
