Knollys children's precise birthdates

Legg inn av Tony Hoskins » 06 apr 2007 00:18:56

Using a variety of sources available (albeit limited) here, I have taken
a stab at determining as precisely as possible the exact birth dates now
finally determinable thanks to the discovery of Sir Francis Knollys's
long hidden Latin dictionary, in which his marriage to Catherine Carey
(26 April 1540) and the births of their fourteen children are listed
[Sally Varlow, "Sir Francis Knollys's Latin dictionary: new evidence for
Katherine Carey," _Institute of Historical Research_ (2006)
(blackwell-synergy.com). I'd be most interested in the views of the
calendrical experts out there as to my accuracy.

Henry Knollys. "1541. the tewsdaye befour ayster daye" = 12 April 1541

Mary Knollys. "1542. the wensdaye present befour all halou daye" = 25
October 1542

Lettice Knollys. "1543. ye tewsdaye present aftr all halou daye" = 6
November 1543

William Knollys. "1545. ye frydaye before owre Ladye daye in Lentt" =
20 March 1545

Edward Knollys. "1546. upon tewsdaye beyng saynt Lukes even" = 12
October 1546

Maud Knollys. "1548. on the fryday aftr ower Lady daye in Lentt" = 30
March 1548

Elizabeth Knollys. "1549. upon trynyte even" = 15 June 1549

Robert Knollys. "1550. the Sunday sennett [sennight] aft all halou
daye" = 9 November 1550

Richard Knollys. "1552. the saterday before the Ascention daye" = 21
May 1552

Francis Knollys. "1553. on munday the 14 daye of August" = 14 August
1553

Anne Knollys. "1555. ye 19th daye of Julye" = 19 July 1555

Thomas Knollys. "borne ye wensdaye before candlemas daye anno 1558" =
26 January 1558

Katherine Knollys. "borne uppon satrday ye 21 daye of October anno
1559" = 21 October 1559

Dudley Knollys. "borne uppon saterdaye the 9th daye of maye,... 1562" =
9 May 1562

I look forward to any coimments or corrections.
