NOTE: Page 41 explains that several printings of this booklet left out a generation here, which has been restored in the 1999 printing. ("The Griswold Family: 12 Generations in England")
Family 1: John Greswold IV, b. ABT 1472 in Rowington, Warwickshire, England d. 20 JUN 1515 in Rowington, Warwickshire, England
- Thomas Greswold, b. 1495 in Warwickshire, England d. 1578 in Rowington, Warwickshire, England

Note: 16. John5 GRESWOLD (12.John7, 8.John6, 6.John5, 5.William4,
4.Richard3, 2.Ralph2, 1.John1) was born about 1472 in Rowington,
Warwickshire, England. John died 20 Jun 1515 in Rowington,
Warwickshire, England."?" His will was dated 9 Dec 1511.
In the 1993 draft of this genealogy, Robert French had another
generation in here which was omitted in the two subsequent drafts and
the 1996 printing. It is now restored. 27.John9 of South Rookery who
lived until 1582 must have been born pretty close to 1510. The
generation which includes him, 26.Roger9, 1504-1545 and 25.Thomas9
1495-1578 seems to fit the material we have but they require a parent,
a John8 who was of Rowington, but not of South Rookery. He would
be the younger brother of Richard8 and their children were roughly
contemporary. It is highly unlikely that their father was 8.John6
Greswold who was definitely born in 1414 (i.e. age 86 at the birth of
his oldest grandchild, 15.Richard8). There are two (or three)
Rowington Greswolds who were born at the turn of the century
between 1490-1510 who are too young to be the children of John.6
Johns had 3 children:
25. m i. Thomas GRESWOLD, born about 1495, died 1578.
26. m ii. Roger GRESWOLD, born about 1504, died before 27 Jan 1545/1546.
27, m iv. John GRESWOLD, the Elder born about 1510, died 15 May 1583.
