Henry Wallop was the eldest son of Oliver Wallop by his first wife Bridget Pigott. [1][2]
Note re Mother
The internet site.'The Peerage', states
Anne Martin is the daughter of Robert Martin.1 She married, firstly, Sir Oliver Wallop, son of Stephen Wallop and unknown daughter Ashley.1 She married, secondly, Thomas Tregonwell.
This is contrary to the order stated in both the Hampshire and the Dorset visitation [4][5] Chronologically it is also impossible. Sir Oliver Wallop died in 1565-1566 [6] Henry Wallop, the subject of this profile was born in c. 1531. ( several years earlier than the 1540 date given on the Peerage Site, the later date is too late for a man made a JP in Hampshire in 1559[7] His stepbrother, John Tregonwell, the son of Anne Martin and Thomas Tregonwell was baptised in February 1549/50 at his mother's home parish of Puddletown, Dorset [8] His father Thomas Tregonwell died relatively soon after his son's birth .The exact date is unknown. Anne however was married to Oliver Wallop by 1553 when her son William Wallop was born. [9]Primary source evidence that Ann was married to Oliver Wallop in 1556 is provided by a Royal licence to alienate the Manor of Worsley in that year
