Elizabeth St. Nicholas, Heiress of Goshall 1 2
- Born: Est 1480, Thorn, Minster, Thanet, Kent, England
- Married: Est 1510
General Notes:
compiler's 13 x great grandmother
Research Notes:
daughter and heir
Elizabeth's eldest son Henry was, according to his own reckoning, born c. 1515 (32 years old in 1547). The Visitation of Kent (1619-21) shows he had a younger brother Edward, but to-date the compiler has found no information to indicate whether or not Henry had older sisters. So, for the moment, an estimated marriage year of 1510 for Elizabeth St. Nicholas and John Dyneley is shown. Elizabeth's birth year is estimated to have been around 1480 (perhaps a little earlier), which would indicate that her father died while she was still a child.
