Registry of Probate of Worchester: (19152) Kenelme Winslowe of the parish of St Andrew, Worcester. April 14, 1607, proved 11-9-1607 appoints wife (19153) Katherine executrix. The following is from Mayflower Heritage, by D. Kenelm Winslow, 1957: "Under the 'free enterprise' of the late Tudors the descendants of Richard Winslow flourished and increased greatly in numbers. (19152) Kenelm Winslow, son of (38304) Thomas of Kerswell [formerly, Kempsey], sold the farm and moved north into Worcester City. Kenelm's son (9576) Edward moved farther north, where he set up in business extracting the famous Droitwich salt. He rented his salt-pans from one of the Winter family who was later involved in the famous Gunpowder Plot of 1605, commemorated in England as Guy Fawkes Day every 5th of November." -- http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Prairie/4103/winslowresearcher/nathanwinslowreport.html "...(19152) Kenelm Winslow ...sold Kerswell to Sir John Buck [1605]. It is clear from his will that he owned land at Kempsey, and that he had two houses which he let on lease when he went to reside with his wife Katherine in Worcester. The rent of the smaller house was 23/8 per annum, and the other, which must have been a good large house, where Kenelm had formerly lived, produced a rental of £13, a very good sum in those days. -- http://www.valenet.com/community/kempsey/winslow.htm#kw, from St. Mary's Church, Kempsey Worcestershire 1984 Kempsey Collection ISBN 0-9509914-0-6 Re-printed with additions 1990.

One RootsWeb listing shows Margery Young's parents to be John & Joan (Clement) Young of Droitwich, Worcester, but no sources are given.

The male line of (19152) Kenelm Winslow shown here purportedly comes from NEHGR, vol. 121, pg. 862, and it is the most reasonable postulation I have seen. The marriage of (38304) Thomas Winslow to (38305) Mary Bucke is speculative, although a connection between the Winslows and the Buckes is indicated by the fact that a John Winslow in 1580 witnessed the will of a Francis Bucke. cf. http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/j/o/h/Susan-C-Johanson/GENE21-0074.html "The chart given by Appleton,...going back to John Winslow and Agnes Throckmorton is sheer fantasy; Agnes Throckmorton married a Thomas Winslow, but there is no known connection between this Thomas and the father or grandfather of (9576) Edward Winslow." -- http://genforum.genealogy.com/cgi-bin/pageload.cgi?kenelm,winslow,thomas::winslow::2 c/o Jay Cary jay.cary@dartmouth.edu Other postings have Kenelm Winslow's parents as Mary Bucke & William Winslow, but this appears NOT to be proven. this William was apparently the son of Thomas, the son of John Wyncelow & Agnes Trockmorton. |

(76608) Richard Winslow's birthyear is given as 1470 on the same site that lists his father's birth as being in the same year. These things don't happen in real life, so I gave an estimated birth year here.
NOTE: In his first publication to the NEHGR, John Hunt proposed (76610) Kelelm Buck and Ellen Neville (b. AFT 1498) as the parents of (38305) Mary Burke -- who, in turn, was proposed as the wife of a William Winslow, who, in turn, was proposed as the father of (19152) Kenelm. But Hunt retracted this theory in subsequent publications, because Ellen would have had to have been improbably young when Mary was born. Ellen's line goes back to Charlemagne, hence the attraction; but there is so much speculation on this whole matter that I will end posting here.
