I changed Edward Bassett's birth year from 1540 to 1560. I don't think there are any primary sources on his date of birth. The year 1560 is used in the Bassett Family Association Database.

http://www.bassettbranches.org/tng/getperson.php?personID=I30&t...

There is a source for Edward's pedigree and his 8 children: The Visitation of the County of Gloucester, published in 1623, republished in 1885, on page 204.

Managers of Edward Bassett, Esq.,

I am contacting you about this profile: Edward Bassett, Esq.

There is an inconsistency inasmuch as Edward Bassett, Esq is said to have been born in 1540, while his father, Wm Bassett, Lord of Uley Manor, had been born just two years before, in 1538 !
