Notes

Miscellanea Genealogica Et Heraldica, ed. Joseph Jackson Howard, Vol. II (London: Mitchell and Hughes, 1898), pp. 18–25. GoogleBooks

While this genealogy says he was born in 1542 and has other dates that conflict with existing records, it does his list names of his children: Samuel Speed (later married to a woman named Joan, had a child also named Samuel Speed who died in 1633), Nathan Speed, Joan Speed (later married to John Hayley), Sarah Speed (later married to Edward Black), Anne Speed (later married to Benjamin Wesley), and later Dr. John Speed (later married to a woman named Margaret, had one child named Samuel Speed, died in 1640) Taylor says that Speed and Susanna had 18 children, while Hibernian Magazine says they had 12 sons and six daughters, with a total of 21 children, neither of which can be independently confirmed, making it seem that they only had 6 or 7 children. Susanna was also reportedly the daughter of Thomas Draper.

Page 16, third from last paragraph reads: "that he was a man of family-- making mention in sober, solid Latin that he lived with his most sweet wife Susana, fifty-seven years, and left eighteen children --- twelve sons and six daughters."

The last sentence of page number 16 reads: "Who the ancestors of John Speed were can not be stated".

Page 200, Appendix the first paragraph reads:

  • "The maiden-name of the wife of John Speed, the historian, was Susan Draper.
  • One of their daughters was named Joan; she married John Huxley, of London.
  • Another named Anne, married Benjamin Welsh, of London.
  • Another named Sarah, married Edward Blakemore. The latter informed Dr. Fuller that her father was born at Farrington, County of Cheshire (Fuller's Worthless)."
