Dorothy Everard
Research Notes: Who was Dorothy's mother? Some family trees show her as Jane Shelley and some as Joan Ernley. Events • Manorial Estate: Ovingdean Manor, Brighton, East Sussex, BN2, GB. 3 Before 1524 the manor had passed to William Everard of Albourne who in that year bequeathed the manor to his wife Jane until his son John should be 22. The manor, stocked with 1,200 sheep, was then to pass to John, who was also to have the 'ferm lands' which William held at Ovingdean, evidently the land belonging to Lewes Priory. This was to be stocked with 800 sheep, besides oxen, kine, hogs, and horses. • Will, 9 May 1549. 4 Dorothy married Sir Henry Goring of Burton, Sussex, son of Sir William Goring of Burton, Sussex and Elizabeth Covert, before 1545.1 (Sir Henry Goring of Burton, Sussex was born about 1522,1 died on 16 Dec 1594 5 and was buried in St. Richard's Church, Burton Park, Duncton, Petworth, West Sussex, GU28 0QU, GB.) |
