Dorothy Goring

From History of Parliament:

Early in the following year he (Sir John Shurley of Isfield) married the sister of Sir George Goring*, and settled at Cuckfield, 12 miles north-west of Lewes. Shurley subsequently wrote that his new wife was ‘the best mother-in-law in the world’ to the children of his first marriage. She was also the widow of Sir Henry Bowyer, a supporter of ‘godly’ ministers and a prominent ironmaster, and consequently Shurley came into possession for her lifetime of Cotchford forge.30
