‡ General

Another quotation from Richard's geni page is "Richard Weston’s grandson Richard Weston became Earl of Portland under Charles I and inspired the fabrication of a pedigree tracing his grandfather’s descent from the Staffordshire family of Weston and a Neville of Westmorland. Weston’s real ancestry is uncertain. He was probably a grandson of William Weston, mercer of London, who died in 1515 leaving four sons, of whom one, Richard, settled in Colchester, where he died in 1541 or 1542, styling himself gentleman and leaving three sons under age, the youngest named Richard. ..."

Geni.com shows Cecilia, however, as daughter of Ralph Neville (c1470-1498). Should we follow that?

¢ Children
  • Nicholas Weston (1553-) is described as son of Margaret Burnaby and thus half-brother to Amphillis and Jerome. That doesn't tally well with Margaret's stated marriage date. Third wife was married 1566/7/7 in Chicheley, Buckinghamshire. (There's some editing to do here!)
