Richard Glover, of Lydd

Biography

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Ward-38784

Richard Glover married Alice Ward on 12 Sep 1573 at St. Clement's church at Old Romney, Kent about 3 miles from Lydd.[1] A reasonable baptism record for Alice Ward (assuming that was her surname at birth) has not yet been found.

Standard WikiTree estimation for a female is 20 years before first known marriage placing Alice's birth at about 1553. This assumes that her surname was Ward and that her first marriage was to Richard Glover.

• 25 Oct 1573 Tamesin daughter of Richard baptized at Old Romney
• 6 Jan 1575 John son of Richard baptized at Old Romney; a John Glover started having children baptized here about 1595, very likely this same man
• 20 Sep 1579 Robert baptized at Lydd, no parent listed but most likely the "Robert son of Richard" buried at Lydd on 9 Apr 1583
• 9 Sep 1582 John baptized at Old Romney, no parent listed but if the John born 1575 was the one having children in the mid 1590s then this John was likely the son of Edmond or another Glover.
• 5 May 1583 Alice daughter of Richard baptized at Lydd
• 10 Aug 1592 Tomsen (Tamesin) Glover married Richard Lee presumably the daughter of Richard and Alice
• 24 Jul 1641 Alice Glover was buried at Old Romney with no supplemental text on the transcription. Possibly this was Alice Ward widow of Richard Glover, that would make her probably close to 90 years old so it may have been a different Alice Glover.[2]
