A very long shot, does anyone know anything about these people below.
I am not sure where I got this information from.
Sir Colart 1495c married and had one daughter Lady Alice Colart 1515c
Sir Colart died 1515c
Lady Alice Colart died in 1586 Chosley, Berkshire.

Just looked for Absolon 1500-1600 Cholsey, Berkshire on F/S.Org with no results.
So just put in England and came up with some Burials in Cholsey, Oxfordshire***.
Could Alice have been a Agnes? 2 burials for Agnes Absolon, St Mary, Cholsey;
26 April 1567 no other info
27 February 1598. d/o John Absolon

Many thanks Trish - I will pursue all of them.
If his daughter was Agnes she would be too old to have her father's name for her burial, I don't have an Agnes listed as a daughter.
