From 'Introduction: The Chamber in the sixteeth century', in Chamber Accounts of the Sixteenth Century London Record Society, 20, ed. Betty R Masters (London, 1984), pp. xxxii-xxxviii http://www.british-history.ac.uk/london-record-soc/vol20/xxxii-xxxviii [accessed 10 June 2015].

112. Brandon married Katherine Barber at St Mary Woolnoth in 1548. The younger children of this marriage were baptised at St Vedast, Foster Lane, as also in 1577, Lucy, daughter of his second marriage to Elizabeth Chapman, née Osborne. Both his wives were buried at St Vedast, Katherine in 1574 and Elizabeth in 1588, as was Robert Brandon himself on 8 June 1591 (for Brandon's family, see Mary Edmond, Hilliard and Oliver: the lives and works of two great miniaturists, 1983, 34–5, 105–6, 108–9). The Goldsmiths' Company records show him at the sign of the 'Gilt Lion' in Goldsmiths' Row in Cheap where he was living when his will was drawn up. He was survived by a son, Edward, five daughters of his first marriage, including Alice Hilliard, and Lucy (PRO Prob 11/17, ff.339–43. And see below p. xxxvii, note 122).
