William was born in 1539, four years after his mother's death! I don't know this line but if anyone can settle that inconsistency, that would be great!

Top left is a son John born to William Cave October 1589. Common names. Howden so probably not them but came up as a hint on mine.
This William is my direct as well and I have not given him any parents in my personal tree at Ancestry.

Anne Brannen can you take a look please?

I put the birth date back that had been there first. The notes in the overview that look like a source are not a source; they came from one of the web tree formats (I recognize the style.) So there is no real authority for the problematic birthdate.

Thank you so much Anne Brannen!
