      "Courthope compiled an elaborate table of the descent of the representation (Coll. Arms MS. WC 12). By her 1st husband Katherine had a daughter Merabel, through who the coheirship descended to the family of Lucas. By her 2nd husband Katherine had a daughter Margaret, who married John Hinckley; of their two daughters the younger, Cicely, wife of Henry Caldebek, had two daughters, by whose marriages the coheirship passed to the families of Bladwell (or Blodwell) and Turner. The whole pedigree can be authenticated for upwards of 200 years from the inquisition and wills (P.C.C.) of the families named, together with certain fines indicated in Davy's Suffolk Collections (B.M. Add. Ms. 18152, under Great Thurlow), and the following Chancery suits: James I, T. 14/23, B.33/3, S. 39/8 ( Cal. Patent Rolls, Henry IV, 1:193)."
