  • Notes: 

  • There is a gap of about 15 years between Richard Kent's youngest daughter and his son born in 1645. This leaves the possibility that Richard Kent's wife Emma was not his first. There is a marriage record for a Richard Kent and Mary Drew dated 19 NOV 1618 in Winnall, Hampshire, England, that some believe to be this Richard Kent. Unfortunately this has not been proven to be the same Richard Kent.
