Notes

---

General:

CONJECTURE - Richard's burial in BL is only conjecture. The BL Paris h record has an illegible christian name. However, the age (80 years ) and date fit and mean he had moved to BL with his third wife, Rebecc a Clarke, who is also buried there. He is shown as a widower on hi s marriage certificate to Rebecca Clarke.
