Note on Husband: Thomas + HOWSE

Notes: The following is a direct quote from a deed relating to the marriage of Thomas and Alice. Originally, based on other seemingly reliable sources, I had their marriage date as 1559.

However, this record clearly shows that the date of their marriage was Nov. 8, 1537. As this is an official government archive record, I'm choosing to rely on it as the correct date.

Note, however, that I have not yet adjusted the birth and death dates. I'm still working to figure that part out.
