Biography

“Elizabeth Russell, the elder sister, was married, in 1503, to Nicholas Boreman or Bowerman, Esq. lord of Brook and Austerborne or Osborne, in the Isle of Wight, whose mother, Dame Joanna, had the honour of entertaining King Henry the Seventh at her mansion, when he visited the island in the August of 1499, with so much hospitality, that the monarch complimented her on his departure with the present of his antique drinking-horn, and a warrant for a fat buck of the season, to be annually delivered, during her life, out of his forest at Carisbrook, —a record still, it is said, preserved by her lineal descendant, who continues to bear the arms of his primogenitors, Ermine, on a bend coticed sable three boars’ heads erased or, langued gules.

The second daughter, Thomasine, became the wife of Robert, the sixth son of Sir Thomas Hussey, of Shapwick, Dorset, by Christiana, daughter of Sir John Fitz-James, of Redlinch, Somerset. He had seven sisters. His ancestry are found to have acted a distinguished part in our baronial annals, claiming for their first rpogenitor that Hubert Hussee who married Helen, daughter of Richard, duke of Normandy, and came over the the conquest of this kingdom from his fief near Cherbourg.” [1]

Elizabeth was still alive in 1528. [2]

Given the lack of sources, the profile should be merged into the sourced profile and all dates and places in it ignored as likely to be, at best, guesswork. If more data turns up later, the profile can be refined then.

Not very well sourced this profile?

This source needs to be reviewed before determining correct Elizabeth Russell that married Nicholas Bowerman in 1503. This source mentions younger sister Thomasine who was her only sibling from the marriage of her parents James Russell and Alicia Wyse.
