  • Notes 
    • "Katherine's husband's second marriage, to Anne Hyde of Urmston, took place at Stockport on 5 August 1602, though the union was less characterized by puritan self-discipline than might be expected. Their son, Nehemiah, was renowned for his drunkenness and fought on the royalist side in the civil war." [Oxford Dictionary of National Biography]
