  2. Wikipedia: John Hussey, 1st Baron Hussey of Sleaford. Note: Wikipedia cites Burke (1866) ... but Burke (1866) does *not* list Joane as a daughter (p.294). Neither does Metcalfe (1866) or the Roll of Royal College Physicians of London (1830). In general, Joan's father seems to be unknown.
  3. Roger ... settled in Hunsdon ... where he married the daughter of HUSSEY, of Sussex, of the family of Lord HUSSEY, who was beheaded for the insurrection of 1537 against Henry VIII (1509-47). The HUSSEY family was descended from HUBERT HUSSEY, a Norman noble, who married the Countess Helen, daughter of Richard V, Duke of Normandy.[citation needed]

I've been working on hubbie Roger's bio again (added mega stuff:) ... So I'm also taking a harder look at Joan because she's a mystery and there is a conflict of belief between sources. More later:)...

For your info., the following message appears from Wikitree when you try to save ... Warning: Check the data.

A mother's death date (Hussey-186 died 1539) should not be before one of her children's birth dates (Forster-140 born Jul 1553) .

Changed death date from 1511. One could assume that she was still alive when her last child was born.
