    • RESEARCH_NOTES:
      1. FHL book 929.242 G868f "The Greswold Family, 12 Generations in England," researched and edited by Robert L. and Esther G. French, comp. by Coralee Griswold [Wethersfeld, CT; 1999]. The authors standardize spelling as Greswold for England and Griswold for America. As of 2012, it appears that this book is the most current evolution of the Griswold ancestry and includes all previous research up to 1999 when it was published. (It also supersedes the author's own work in 1990 for the later English generations). See notes in this database of the original Griswold for a more detailed explanation of the various sources and a bibliography of previously published books that the authors include in this genealogical compilation.
      "George11 Greswold (Roger10, John9, John8, John7, John6, John5, William4, Richard3, Ralph2, John1) was christened 6 Nov 1574 in Wooton Wawen, Warwickshire, England. George died 1623 [Maybe died as late as 1643, but no reference can be found for this date.] He married (1) Dousabel (LEIGH ?) about 1606. She was born about 1575. Dousabel was buried 28 Aug 1615 in Wooton Wawen, Warwickshire, England. They had 1 Child:
      i. Edward Griswold, christened 26 July 1607, at Wootton Wawen, Warwickshire, England, died 30 Aug 1691.
      George married second (2) Honora (PAWLEY ?) about 1616, apparently in connection with his purchase of a cottage and garden in Kenilworth from Hugh Underhill and Lettice, his sister. Honora was probably a connection of the Underhill's, and possibly their (Hugh and Lettice) mother. Their father, (Honora's first husband) John Underhill had died in Holland in 1608. No record of Honora has been discovered until her remarriage at the Klooster Kerk at the Hague on 28 Nov 1628 to Dirck Thomaszen so she may have returned to Kenilworth during the 1609-1621 truce, after her husband died. They had 2 children:
      ii. Matthew Griswold, born 1620, died 27 Sep 1698
      iii. Thomas Greswold, born about 1622, died 1699.
      Richard Morris (Dirck Thomaszen) was a sword cutler, christened Jan 1582 at St. Nicholas Church, Warwickshire, England to Thomas and Elizabeth (___) Morris. Elizabeth was buried at St. Nicholas in Nov 1591. Richard Morris had a daughter, Katherine, christened at Wooton Wawen 25 Mar 1613 (the record shows only the father's name). Katherine married (1) (___) Wright and (2) Edward Greswold on 11 Jun 1635, at Kenilworth [not the immigrant, Edward of Windsor, Connecticut and IGI gives his name as Thomas Grissold, same place and date].
      After the truce, many military men returned to the continent and in 1625, John Underhill, the younger, became a cadet in the service of the Prince of Nassau. By then, George11 had died also. The Greswold, Morris and Underhill families were connected but the records are not complete enough to show exactly how."

      2. The book "The Ancestry of Allen Grinnell Cleaver and Martha Irene Jessup," by William Jessup Cleaver (Baltimore, MD: Gateway Press, Inc., 1989), pp. 486-90, 494-95:
      "GRISWOLD
      …The English ancestry of Edward has been the subject of much careful scholarly discussion (sometimes apparently heated). This solution appears to have the best documentation.
      Roger Griswold of Rowington - Margaret
      William Griswold
      Roger Griswold of Kenilworth
      George Griswold of Wooten Wawen - Dousabel
      Edward Griswold, emigrant - Margaret
      Francis Griswold (1st son of Edward)…
      John Griswold (6th son of Edward) - Mary Bemis (See) …
      D. ROGER GRISWOLD of Rowington, county Warwickshire, England died in 1545 leaving a will dated 9 June 1545 mentioning wife Margaret; sons Robert, William, John and Richard; and brother John. (1)
      C. WILLIAM GRISWOLD was born about 1515 to 1520. He was the second son of Roger. He appears to be the father of Thomas of Rowington and Roger of Kenilworth. (1)(3)
      B. ROGER GRISWOLD of Kenilworth was born about 1545-50 anti died before 1607. In a Chancery proceeding in 1602/3 involving certain lands, the relationship of this Roger to his father William is indicated. There were three sons: the second Roger of Kenilworth, Thomas of Stonley and George. (1)(2)(3)
      A. GEORGE GRISWOLD was baptized at Wooten Wawan in Warwickshire in 1574. He married, first, Dousabel and had a son Edward. Dousabel was buried at Wooten Wawen, wife of George, 28 August 1615 and George remarried, a wife whose name is unknown. Sons Matthew and Thomas were born of this marriage. Edward and his half-brother Matthew emigrated to New England. (1)(2)(3)(9)
      1. EDWARD GRISWOLD, son of George and Dousabell--, was baptized 26 July 1607 in Wooten Wawen, a chapelry of Henley in Warwickshire, England...
