Info from another record states that William married Allis UNK, b 1520 in Titchfield, d. aft 1554 in Titchfield. Different records show Richard the son of Margaret WRIGLEY and William AUSTIN. If Rodger was born in 1550, Margaret could have died in childbirth, and he then married Annis, who was the mother of Jane.=, and maybe others. Two records show Richard as the son of Margaret, records from Laverne Edward OLNEY: leolney@earthlink.net (Olney Family and Finance Links) and from Errol BEVAN: fromadam2u@hotmail.com.
