When I saw the author "Thomas Washbourne" I wondered if he could have been related to me, as my mother's family are Washburns from England and Europe. So I went to my list of ancestors that I'd prepared last year, and lo and behold, here is the section I found that probably connects me to this Thomas Washbourne:<br /><br />"6. John Washbourne<br /> b. 1356<br /> d. May 13, 1454<br /> m. Margaret Le Poher (b. 1378 d.1427)<br /><br /> Note: John Washborne was twice married; by his first wife Joan, daughter and heiress <br />of Sir John Musard, he had one daughter - Isolde - who married John Solway and carried <br />with her the Stanford Estates. He married 2nd Margerey Poher (or Power), daughter of <br />Lord John Poher, by whom he inherited large estates at Wichenford in 1397. <br />After his marriage with Margerey Power, John Washborne lived at Wichenford Court <br />and died there May 13, 1454. The Washborne family continued to live at Wichenford for <br />six generations.<br /><br />7. Norman (or Norborne) Washbourne<br /> b. 1420 (Stanford, Wichenford, Worcs., England)<br /> d. 1479<br /> m. Elizabeth Knivton (b.1420 d. May 1454<br /><br />8. John Washbourne or Washburn<br /> b. 1451 (Stanford, Wichenford, Worcs, England.<br /> d. May 6, 1517<br /> m. Joan Mitton or Mytton (b.1455 d.1517)<br /><br />I so so love your blog!
