Elizabeth Sulyard

Alt death date: 4/2/1530

Yes that would be an alternate, wrong though. Again referring to Muskett vol I, p. 190 + 2 Apr 1539. Will 18 Mar 1537, pr. PCC 3 May 1539. No doubt this could be checked in A2A.

And I can only guess that her birth is 'calculated' from the LDS' guesstimate of women being 2 years younger than husbands. And working from husband's supposed age of 48 in 1492 plus 2 gives 1456. Bingo!

But it is meaningless.

Elizabeth Sulyard was the daughter of John Sulyard of Weston, Essex (or Wetherdon, Suffolk) (c.1420-March 18, 1488) and Agnes Saunders (sometimes called Hungate, her mother’s maiden name) (d. before 1463). Elizabeth married John Garneys of Kenton, Suffolk (c.1455-June 11, 1524). Their children were Robert (c.1478-August 2, 1558), Mirabell (d. February 25, 1558), William, Anne, John (d.1526), Agnes, Alice, Margaret, Thomas (c.1510-c.1566), and Elizabeth (d.c.1528). This Elizabeth Sulyard should not be confused with her half sister, also named Elizabeth Sulyard (d.1569), whose mother was Alice Andrews (d.1520). The second Elizabeth married Sir Edward Baynton (c.1480-November 27, 1544). Elizabeth Garneys’s will, proved May 3, 1539, left £10 for repair of the highway between Needham Market and Stow and instructed that she be buried in Badby Church, Badby, Suffolk. Portrait: memorial brass to her husband in the vestry of Kenton Church.

Had 15 children.
