| Notes |
- Burial entry in PR states: "widow, the elder" but fails to record her name. Also, Thomasine is clearly a second wife of Matthew but the marriage date, other than being before 25 May 1631, has not been found as she is referred to in Matthew's Will as being his "now wife". Without that marriage date it is impossible to know if any of Matthew's children were by Thomasine or by another wife. The first marriage would have been sometime before 5 May 1588 as that is the baptism date of the presumed first born son, Richard. Unfortunately, none of the children's baptisms have a mother's name recorded.
