=== Life Sketch ===
There were multiple Elizabeth Vivian's with father's who were John. The Elizabeth who married Richard Coryn was daughter of John Vivian who was the brother of Thomas Vivian the Bishop of Bodmin - and I have now disconnected her from this profile which appears to conflate multiple profiles. The children added here are clearly from at least 3 sets of parents with no evidence whatsoever to connect them here.
I recommend that whomever takes on the task of untangling it starts with the two editions of Vivian's Visitations of Cornwall and then verify baptisms. Please to not reconnect to Elizabeth who married Coryn unless there is some absolute proof of the relationship. Look at visitation of Cornwall by vivian on page 256 in the footno
