Biography

The wife of Robert Nicholls was Elizabeth or Isabel. Source implies that she was not mentioned in husband's will, so died before 1548.^[1]

"Robert Nicholls, of London, married Elizabeth or Isabel, died 1548; they had three sons, Thomas (the elder), John, and Thomas the Younger; these children and his grandson Robert, son of Thomas, are mentioned in his will, dated and proved 20 June, 1548, leaving a mansion in London, and large landed property."^[2][1]

Is this a case of Mistaken Identity? She has been called Elizabeth Ann Pardee.

• Joseph Pardee, late of Stamford, in his will dated 17 Feb 1762, mentions among others his daughter Elisabeth wife of Robert Nichols^[3] Elizabeth Pardee b. 1734

Caution: When using the following source. It has since been proven that Francis Nichols of Stratford is not the brother of Governor Richard Nichols. The early generations of the genealogy belong to Governor Richard. But the families of Francis and Caleb descend from other Nicholses.
