Remarks |
Supplements alhatton.e3.
Author daughter of Sir Williams Scroggs (Thompson 1878:152, fn. a), but
her birthname is given as Gilby (Thompson 1878:261). Not to be
confused with Lady Elizabeth Hatton, third wife of Sir Christopher Hatton
(ehatton.e3). For more information, see
Hatton kinship relations.
Thompson 1878:152, fn. a remarks that "[h]er letters are illiterate, even
for that age, for one in her position." |
