Thomas is the father of Ann and Catherine. Their mother is unknown. It would seem that Ann More is Thomas' second wife. Ann More's first husband was John West. She and John had three children; Godfrey, Anne and Jane. Catherine, Thomas' daughter, marries Godfrey West. He is the son of her step-mother, and consequently, her step-sibling.
