Biography

Hi Tim,

See the G2G, apparently there were no sources for the relationship, so if you have some sources that show she really was his daughter please post them here or at his profile or in the G2G including links to the sources.

Without sources, for now we can keep them like we have them now, so with father marked as uncertain and the uncertain family template added to her profile, and a note added to both profiles, not sure what everyone prefers, but in the G2G it was mentioned perhaps the supposed father should be removed because of the lack of evidence..

Greets and hope it helps,

Bea :)

Given that her father is thought to be John Avenell, it might be reasonable to assume her maiden name was Avenell.

See Unknown-237101 for information from the sources.

What are the sources for birth location & marriage date/location?

Also, since marriage location is "Devon." - does the point indicate it should be "Devonshire"?

posted by Liz (Noland) Shifflett
Avenell-8 and Unknown-237101 appear to represent the same person because: these profiles were attached as mother to duplicate profile of Joane. I can find no support that the maiden name of Joane's mother was known. Therefore, I protected Unknown-237101.

Please approved the merge.

Thanks!

RE; Margaret Holcombe formerly Avenell

Charles born 1473 would put Margaret as about 23 at his birth, her date of death of 1599 is more believable than before 1467, which is before her children were born, there is mention of The calendar of Inquistions - as mentioned by Liz on Joane's profile. but nothing has been noted on profile to the contents. Charles was 26 years old when his mother passed away in 1499.
