      Second marriage

      '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 Thomasen so she may have returned to Kenilworth during the 1609 -1621 truce, after her husband died.'

      'George GRESWOLD ... was christened 6 Nov 1574 in Wooton Wawn, Warwickshire, England. George died 1623 [footnote: Maybe died as late as 1643, but no reference can be found for this date.]'

      Since his wife remarried in 1628, it seems he must have died before 1643.
