Title: Tichborne family: help required from experienced genealogist
Post by: tichmot on Thursday 14 October 10 15:08 BST (UK)

I need some help from an experience genealogist with expertise in 15th and 16th century lines in Kent, Surrey Hampshire.

I am trying to establish the connection of the Tichbornes of Edenbridge/Cowden with the Tichbornes of Hampshire. They are both descended from the Marriage of John Tichborne of Tichborne and Margaret Martin of Edenbridge, Kent, c 1465.

However the published sources disagree somewhat. The Tichborne of Tichborne line is clear enough. But the Edenbridge/Cowden lines are not. The main problems are from about 1470 to 1550 (after that some of the Kent lines are clearer, though not all).

I am writing a book on the whole Tichborne family.

Please contact me if you would relish a challenge!

Hi tichmot,

You have come to the right place,
good luck,
Billy.

May I suggest Collins Baronetage - see https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=R2QUAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA428&lpg=PA428&dq=Tichborne+Edenbridge&source=bl&ots=Bxa0alKQpA&sig=xL_IPR4Na2qJrqceFnvZavGjHe4&hl=en&sa=X&ei=tMG3VNDJHcbsUtXPgJAN&ved=0CDcQ6AEwAw#v=onepage&q=Tichborne%20Edenbridge&f=false

and Betham's Baronetage has a slightly easier to read version at https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=5ikwAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA205&lpg=PA205&dq=Tichborne+Edenbridge&source=bl&ots=cDJ2i6z6_F&sig=VripMp5RXlyc3C5XO6FerXQs2cs&hl=en&sa=X&ei=EcK3VIDzOor2UvDYg_AH&ved=0CCAQ6AEwADgK#v=onepage&q=Tichborne%20Edenbridge&f=false

and also http://www.stirnet.com/genie/data/british/tt/tichborne1.php

and also pages 107-108 of The Visitation of Surrey 1530, 1572 & 1623

HTH,
Caspar

Hi Caspar

tichmot hasn't been online here since 2011.

As long as their email address hasn't changed, they should receive a notification that you have posted and hopefully come back soon.
