This book is an attempt to set the genealogical record straight after more than 130 years of conflated information as has came forward because of the errant Visitations of Essex, County England. Dates of the Visitations were 1552, 1558, 1612 and 1634 were compiled and edited by Walter C. Metcalfe, and published March 1879 in London. The information used to prove the associated ancestries in this book are many, but the data was independently verified using original manuscripts in England. Many dates used herein will challenge researchers for the dates commonly assumed correct are in fact off by as many as fifty years for dates of specific individuals enumerated herein. Do not believe Lord Richard Weston engaged his twelve-year old daughter with a marriage contract to a man forty years older than her. Richard Whyte, the father of Richard Whyte made the contract with Lord Richard Weston; it is extant. Richard Whyte who married Catherine Weston was born October 13, 1595 at Hutton Hall, Essex, England.
