Elizabeth, christened Dec. 26, 1615, at Quinton.  Elizabeth Riland married Richard Randolph Feb 4, 1643/44 at St Margaret Pattens Church in London.  It is from them that the Randolphs of Virginia descend. Their tree is comprehensively covered on many web pages.  A good place to start is the cemetery at Turkey Island, Va.
From Walter Ryland, http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/surnames/r/y/Ryland/biographie s/10160
Who was Elizabeth Ryland?  She married Richard Randolph and was the mother of William Randolph.  William emigrated to Jamestown, Virginia, in 1672 and soon established a large plantation called 'Turkey Island.'  He died there 11 April 1711, aged 60, so his birth was 1650 or maybe 1651.  William Randolph of 'Turkey Island' is a key figure in Virginia history and genealogy, I do not need to remind readers of the RANDOLPH biography boards.  He was a founder of the College of William and Mary and a leader in the young colony.  He also has thousands of descendants.  Two of his great-grandsons were President Thomas Jefferson and Chief Justice John Marshall.  "Ryland"is a recurring given name among his descendants.  The Pine Bluff, Arkansas, Rylands are descended from him -- not directly through the Ryland family, but through Woodson and Porter lines.  Very little has been known for sure about Elizabeth Ryland.  You can take your pick from any of a number of sources giving her date and place of birth, and the date and place of her marriage to Richard Randolph.  Entries in the International Genealogical Index (IGI), submitted by various researchers over the years, give the dates of the marriage as 1625, 1644, 1646, 1647, 1649, and 1650 -- and one as late as 1671.  So many people are of Randolph descent, that many personal websites show even more variation in the "facts."  Even the accepted reference books vary in their rendition of the dates and places.  Since William Randolph is thought to have been born in Moreton Morrell, near Stratford, it is generally assumed that his parents were from that hamlet as well and Elizabeth was closely related to the Stratford Rylands.  But there are no documented christenings for any Elizabeth Ryland in Warwickshire or London from 1599 to 1639.  Facts may be fragmentary, but there is no shortage of guesses.  The place of Elizabeth's birth is given as Sussex, Yorkshire, Moreton-Morrell, "Morton Hall" and "Mortonal" (sic), etc. Her father is sometimes Richard and sometimes John.  It appears that different branches of the Randolph family had somewhat varying versions of their oral traditions in Colonial days.  The "Rosetta Stone" to identify Elizabeth Ryland seems to be the recurring mention that she was the sister of Archdeacon Ryland.  If the Archdeacon were a well-known figure, as he seems to have been at one time, we should expect to be able to research him on the Internet, but thorough searching has failed to provide any information about him.  The Archdeacon's biography appears in THREE HUNDRED YEARS OF FAMILY LIVING:Being a History of the Rilands of Sutton Coldfield, by the Rev. W. K. Riland Bedford (Birmingham, England: Cornish Brothers, 1889). We can supplement this information with material from the parish registers as cited in the IGI and additional entries transcribed earlier by Mrs. Susanna Proctor[Ryland] Flory in FRAGMENTS OF FAMILY HISTORY (London: Hodder Brothers, 1896).  The surname "Ryland" has been spelled in numerous creative ways over the years.  The branch of the family associated with Bearley, Stratford, and Birmingham -- and subsequently America -- has generally favored the spelling Ryland. But the Sutton Coldfield line settled on the spelling Riland, which they use to this day.  The Archdeacon was John Riland, born August 8, 1619, in Quinton, Gloucestershire. ("Quinton" actually comprises two separate villages, Upper Quinton and Lower Quinton.  They are served by a single parish church.  Oddly enough, Upper Quinton is south of Lower Quinton and is the smaller of the two.  The dual village is just outside of Stratford-upon-Avon and has been reassigned to Warwickshire since 1931.)  Archdeacon John Riland was the son of Richard Rilande (christened Nov. 9, 1587, at Quinton; died after 1634) and Elizabeth Harward.  They were married Dec. 4, 1611, at Bidford-on-Avon, Warwickshire.  The Archdeacon's sister Elizabeth was christened Dec. 26, 1615, at Quinton.  Elizabeth Riland married Richard Randolph Feb 4, 1643/44 at St Margaret Pattens Church in London.  The Randolph family lived in Little Houghton in the Hardingstone district of Northampton -- not Warwick.  The parish record from Little Houghton indicates Richard Randolph was christened there 24 Feb 1622.  From all this, the picture that emerges seem to be that Miss Ryland of Gloucestershire and Mr. Randolph of Northampton found themselves in London, met and married.  Subsequently they lived in Warwick near her family, where their children were born.  What they were doing in London, and what Mr.Randolph's profession might have been to permit him such mobility, I do not know.  They do not seem to have emigrated to America themselves; Richard Randolph died in Dublin 2 May 1678.  We do not know what he was doing in Ireland, or if Elizabeth was still with him.  Perhaps he served with Cromwell's occupation forces -- or, conversely, maybe he was in Ireland seeking sanctuary from the Protectorate, which seems more likely to me.  But we Ryland researchers will gladly yield to Randolph experts for the answer to that question. ; A biography of Archdeacon Riland appears on the Ryland biography board at the link below.

Elizabeth, christened Dec. 26, 1615, at Quinton.  Elizabeth Riland married Richard Randolph Feb 4, 1643/44 at St Margaret Pattens Church in London.  It is from them that the Randolphs of Virginia descend. Their tree is comprehensively covered on many web pages.  A good place to start is the cemetery at Turkey Island, Va.

Who was Elizabeth Ryland? She married Richard Randolph and was the mother of William Randolph.  William emigrated to Jamestown, Virginia, in 1672 and soon established a large plantation called 'Turkey Island.'  He died there 11 April 1711, aged 60, so his birth was 1650 or maybe 1651.

William Randolph of 'Turkey Island' is a key figure in Virginia history and genealogy, I do not need to remind readers of the RANDOLPH biography boards.  He was a founder of the College of William and Mary and a leader in the young colony.  He also has thousands of descendants.  Two of his great-grandsons were President Thomas Jefferson and Chief Justice John Marshall.  "Ryland" is a recurring given name among his descendants.  The Pine Bluff, Arkansas, Rylands are descended from him -- not directly through the Ryland family, but through Woodson and Porter lines.

Very little has been known for sure about Elizabeth Ryland.  You can take your pick from any of a number of sources giving her date and place of birth, and the date and place of her marriage to Richard Randolph.

Entries in the International Genealogical Index (IGI),submitted by various researchers over the years, give the dates of the marriage as 1625, 1644, 1646, 1647, 1649, and 1650 -- and one as late as 1671.  So many people are of Randolph descent, that many personal websites show even more variation in the "facts."

Even the accepted reference books vary in their rendition of the dates and places.  Since William Randolph is thought to have been born in Moreton Morrell, near Stratford, it is generally assumed that his parents were from that hamlet as well and Elizabeth was closely related to the Stratford Rylands.  But there are no documented christenings for any Elizabeth Ryland in Warwickshire or London from 1599 to 1639.

Facts may be fragmentary, but there is no shortage of guesses.  The place of Elizabeth's birth is given as Sussex, Yorkshire, Moreton-Morrell, "Morton Hall" and "Mortonal" (sic), etc.  Her father is sometimes Richard and sometimes John.  It appears that different branches of the Randolph family had somewhat varying versions of their oral traditionsin Colonial days.

The "Rosetta Stone" to identify Elizabeth Ryland seems to be the recurring mention that she was the sister of Archdeacon Ryland.  If the Archdeacon were a well-known figure, as he seems to have been at one time, we should expect to be able to research him on the Internet, but thorough searching has failed to provide any information about him.

The Archdeacon's biography appears in THREE HUNDRED YEARS OF FAMILY LIVING: Being a History of the Rilands of Sutton Coldfield, by the Rev. W. K. Riland Bedford (Birmingham, England:Cornish Brothers, 1889).  We can supplement this information with material from the parish registers as cited in the IGI and additional entries transcribed earlier by Mrs. Susanna Proctor [Ryland] Flory in FRAGMENTS OF FAMILY HISTORY (London: HodderBrothers, 1896).

The surname "Ryland" has been spelled in numerous creative ways over the years.  The branch of the family associated with Bearley, Stratford, and Birmingham -- and subsequently America -- has generally favored the spelling Ryland. But the Sutton Coldfield line settled on the spelling Riland, which they use to this day.

The Archdeacon was John Riland, born August 8, 1619, in Quinton, Gloucestershire. ("Quinton" actually comprises two separate villages, Upper Quinton and Lower Quinton.  They are served by a single parish church.
