Research Notes

The newly merged Find A Grave: Memorial #147201311. As of Aug 2021, it is no longer in the name of Alice (Harvey) Hill. It is now Isabel (Hervey) Radcilffe, daughter of Edmund Hervey, and wife of Edward Hill and Humphrey Radcliffe, with 4 children linked. ^[2]

The Family Search Profile for Alice Hill that was included in this profile has been changed to someone totally different 'Alice White', but the Collaborate tab still has the following comment called "land transaction explaination" (sic)

"She is not mentioned as a child of Robert Radcliffe and Elizabeth Stafford.

BUT.....a Land transaction is most interesting. Edmund Radlicffe , in behalf of Isabell Harvey Radcliffe his mother and John Whitbread, in behalf of Eleanor Hill Whitbred and dau of Alice Harvey, BOTH men gave the same premise of land, on the same day, to John Radwell. This suggests that they represent co-heiress ( Isabel and Alice, children of the same parents. It has been stated that Isabel was sole heiress of Elston - but that is an apparent error. They must be co-heiress."

Another comment was added 12 Nov 2020 - "The statement shown above is incorrect. Eleanor was not the daughter of Alice Harvey because Alice Harvey did not exist since Edmund Hervey only had one heir named Isabel Harvey who was the mother of Eleanor (Radcliffe) Whitbread."

Find A Grave: Memorial #218956109 is for Mary Wentworth, wife of Edmund Hervey. There is information on the page that states that Margaret Wentworth is the sister of Mary, Margaret married John Berney, and Mary married Edmund Hervey. ^[3]

There is a lengthy biography on several Find a Grave pages for several related individuals because there is conflicting information with limited sources on these wiktiree profiles, as well as on Find a Grave profiles. Sources are included in some of the Find a Grave pages.

• Find A Grave: Memorial #218956109 Mary Wentworth 1492-1560, possible mother of this profile, married to Edmund Hervey
• Find A Grave: Memorial #192275617 Margaret Wentworth, sister of Mary, who married John Berney. She is mentioned in this biography as mother of Alice.
• Find A Grave: Memorial #124829815 Edmund Hervey, father of this profile
• Find A Grave: Memorial #147201311 supposedly the 'Alice Harvey' that matches this Wikitree profile. Name is Isabel (Hervey) Radcliffe, daughter of Edmund Hervey, wife of Edward Hill and Humphrey Radcliffe
• Find A Grave: Memorial #218353288 Eleanor (Radcliffe) Whitbread, daughter of Isabel Hervey, not Alice Hill. Wikitree states she is daughter of Edward Hill, Find a Grave states she is daughter of Humphrey Radcliffe.
