Biography
Birth and Parents
Richard Cotton was the son and heir ofSir George Cottonand his wifeMary Onley, daughter of John Onley Esq. of Catesby, Northamptonshire and his wife Jane Pontesbury.[1][2]A record of 18 February 1561 states that he reached the age of 21 on 22 August 1560, giving his birth date as 22 August 1539.[3]He was probably born in Cheshire, where his father had property.
Marriages and Children
Richard married three times. On 16 January 1559/60 Richard marriedMary Mainwaring, daughter of Sir Arthur Mainwaring of Ightfield, Shropshire and Margaret Mainwaring, at Marbury, Cheshire.[4][5](Richardson gives the date as 6 January - parish register transcripts have it as 16 January;[1][2]Harrison Dwight Cavanagh's book on colonial Chesapeake families gives the marriage date as before December 1538, which is patently wrong.[3]) They had at least the following children:
•George,[1][2][4]said to be 40 years and more at his father's death in 1602[3]
•Mary, wife of Ralph Bulkeley[1][2][3](Cheshire Visitation calls him William Bulkeley of Woore)[4]
•Frances, wife of George Abell, born in about 1573[1][2](seeResearch Notes (below))
•two daughters referred to but not named by Richardson[1][2]
•Dorothy, who died unmarried between 17 February and 8 April 1594:[3][4]Ormerod's History of Cheshire has a question-mark against her[6]
•Elizabeth, who may have died unmarried after 1608[3]
Richardson and the Harleian Society edition of pedigrees from the 1613 Cheshire Visitation list two other sons of Richard Cotton‘s first marriage but Harrison Dwight Cavanagh quotes a 1598 record, witnessed by Richard's son George, in which Richard transferred funds to them, referring to them as his "natural sons", suggesting that they were illegitimate.[3]Ormerod's History of Cheshire has brackets round their names, which may be meant to imply probable illegitimacy.[6]
•Arthur[1][2][4]
•Andrew[1][2][4]
On 14 June 1578 at St Olave's, Old Jewry, London,[2]Richard marriedJane Seyliard,[6]daughter of William Seyliard, Gent., of London, merchant tailor, and Joan Todd.[1][2]They had one daughter:
•Jane[1][2][3]
Jane Seyliard was alive on 22 September 1593, but died before 20 February 1603/4.[1][2]There is a burial record for a Jane Cotton at Wrenbury, Cheshire on 3 July 1596 and this may well be for her.[7]
Richard's third wife wasPhilipe, widow of John Dormer of Buckinghamshire.[6]Her family origins are not known. Richardson and Cavanagh say that they had no children,[1][2][3]though Carl Boyer refers to the possibility that they had two children:
•Philip, born in about 1598 and said to have fought for Charles I and been killed in Scotland[8]
•Bridgett, executrix of her mother's will in 1631[8]
Combermere Abbey
In 1563 Richard substantially altered the house his father had constructed using the remains of Combermere Abbey, Cheshire.[1][2][3]A stone tablet there contains this verse:[9]
Master Richard Cotton and his sons three
Both for their pleasure and commoditie
This building did edifie
In fifteen hundred and sixty three
The house was the subject of a poem addressed to Richard and written by the Elizabethan poetGeoffrey Whitney,[9][10]whose will shows that he leased a farm at Combermere from Richard.[11]
Death
Richard died intestate on 14 June 1602 at Stoke, Warwickshire, England.[1][2][3]An Inquisition Post Mortem was held at Sandbach, Combermere, Cheshire on 6 April 1605.[3]His widow Philipe survived him. She left a will dated 30 May 1625 and proved on 18 August 1631.[1][2]
Research Notes
Visitation of Shropshire
The Mainwaring pedigree in the Harleian Society edition of the 1623 Visitation of Shropshire says that Mary Mainwaring, Richard's first wife, married George, not Richard, Cotton.[12]
Mother of Daughter Frances
The Abell Family in America(1940) states that Frances was Richard's daughter by his second marriage, to Jane Seyliard, but gives no source to support this.[13]
Both Carl Boyer'sMedieval English Ancestors of Robert Abell(2001)[8]and Douglas Richardson[2]state that Frances was born in about 1573: this was several years before Richard's second marriage took place. Boyer adds that "The will of Jane (Seyliard) Cotton's mother provides conclusive evidence, through its careful list of heirs, that Jane had only one daughter, Jane." Both Boyer and Richardson cite a 1984 article,Ancestry of Frances (Cotton) Abell, in 'The Genealogist' (journal of the Association for the Promotion of Scholarship in Genealogy, New York City), issue 5 (pp. 158-171).
Winifred Cotton
Carl Boyer names one other daughter of Richard's first marriage,Winifred, who married Thomas Dering of Liss, Hampshire.[8]She is also named as a daughter in Ormerod's history of Cheshire.[6]Richardson shows Winifred as a sister of Richard.[1][2]
