Other sources give Thomas Trussell as the father of Jennet Trussell/Russell, but those sources are taken from a problematic Welsh genealogy which genealogists do not use unless other sources back it up, and a pedigree taken in large part from the work of Mrs. Harriet (Bainbridge) DeSalis, who is known to have produced frauds.
