Elizabeth Butler

Biography

Caution: Some internet genealogies show a second husband John Wynne. There is no documentation, however, for such a connection.

Elizabeth was the daughter of Thomas Wroth and Mary Rich.[1][2] Her birth date is uncertain but her 1574 marriage date may point to a birth date of 1555-1560. She was a legatee in the 1573 will of her father.[1][2]

Elizabeth married twice. On 24 June 1574 at Hertingfordbury, Hertfordshire, she married George Mynne Esq of Hertingfordbury.[1][2][3] They had six children:

1. Robert,[1][2] their eldest son[4]
2. John,[1][2] their second son[4]
3. George[1][2]
4. Mary[1][2][4]
5. Susan[1][2][4]
6. Anne,[4] who married George Calvert[1][2]

Her first husband died in 1581,[1][2] and appointed Elizabeth sole executor, leaving her his manor at Gawlden, Somerset and other lands in London, Hertfordshire and Somerset.[4]

Elizabeth's second husband was Nicholas Boteler/Butler.[1][2]

In 1606 Elizabeth had a bequest from her brother Robert.[1][2]

Elizabeth died on 14 August 1614.[1][2]
