Biography

It was claimed that a Sibyl Baskerville, daughter of Sir John Baskerville , had married Richard Rowdon[1][2][3], son of a James Rowdon.[4]

However, Norr[5] placed this Sibyl as the daughter of John Baskerville and Alice Bridges.

The Rowdon pedigree in the Visitation of Herefordshire recorded that a Richard Rowdon , son of James Rowdon, married Sibyl, daughter of John Baskervile.[6][7] Similarly, Robinson[8] in his Rowdon pedigree included a Richard Rowdon who died 1564 as the husband of Sibyl Baskerville.

[This Richard Rowdon and Sibyl Baskerville are clearly far too late for Sibyl to be the daughter of Sir John Baskerville and Elizabeth Touchet.]

Children:[6]

Anthony Rowdon

Thomas Rowdon

Walter Rowdon

James Rowdon

Edward Rowdon

Jane Rowdon

Dorathe Rowdon

Margaret Rowdon

Elynor Rowdon

Elizabeth Rowdon

The pedigree actually shows two sons named James and two daughters named Elizabeth. The later Visitation pedigree[7] has an additional son, Robert Rowdon, but does not show two sons named James and two daughters named Elizabeth.
