Biography
DIED IN BATTLE : KILLED IN KETT'S REBELLION, 1549.
A document from Helmingham archives records that Anne ("Anna") Talmash ("Talmach") married Robert Knyvet (" Roberti Knevett di com. Norff." ) of County Norfolk.
( On Ancestry his birth date is suggested to be 1512 ?) - and the Helmingham book by Tollemache-120 records that:
"Anne Tollemache had married Robert Knyvet, who took part in Norfolk in the agrarian troubles of 1549, and is reported as being slain at Kett's camps after the sacking of the city of Norwich." ( Page 39.)
