Research Notes

Weis does not have her mother's name, her birth date, her marriage date or her father's birth date. Her son was born in 1528 so the assumption is they were married before then.

Due to the merge and some data issues Elizabeth was switched to the wrong parents, and I've switched Standish-32 to be her father again. Her birth date was unsourced, so I removed it, it was a source of confusion. Her death date is cited. I can't find Roger's wife's name, I'll keep looking. Thanks!

Standish-123 and Standish-174 appear to represent the same person because: These two profiles represent the same person. The only variation is the name Elizabeth, it is listed as a "nickname" on both profiles.

According to the book "The Families of Standish of Standish" by Frederick Lewis Weis, 1948, Her father is Roger Standish and Ralph is she has a brother Ralph. "Alice Standish, daughter of Roger Standish of Standish, Esq., and sister of Ralph Standish of Napton-on-the-Hill, County Warwick, Gentleman, was buried at Standish Parish in 1564."

I believe that her name was Alice, not Elizabeth or Elizabeth Alice.

There appears to be confusion about the name of Roger STANDISH's daughter who married James PRESCOTT.

I do have the same basic dates as you have.

ALICE STANDISH

Birth ABT 1510 • Standish Parish, Lancashire, ENGLAND

Death 1564 • Standish Parish, Lancashire, ENGLAND

I believe that she is my maternal 11th great grandmother.
