- Notes:
Claims that Charles Brent was the son of George Brent of Lancaster are false. George Brent mentions a son Charles in his will, but that Charles is too young to be this Charles. It is now believed that Charles Brent was a brother of George Brent and son of Hugh Brent. More evidence is needed to support this claim.
