Her father's will (1571/2) left her £10. Davis (1945) thought her a child of the first wife and "possibly the Margery Smith mentioned in her step-mother's will" (Edith's will of 1592 leaves a peck of rye to a Margerie Smith).

Open questions

  • Was her mother Thomas's first wife or Edith? If she was the first wife's child, Edith married Thomas after 1555 and could not be William's mother.
