General Notes
- Sir William Waldegrave, the grandfather of Anne, was knighted in 1501 at the marriage of Prince Arthur (elder brother of Henry VIII) with Catherine of Aragon. In 1513 he was nominated as one of the most discreet persons for assessing and collecting the subsidy. He founded a chantry at Bures. By his will dated 26 Jan. 1524-5 he directed that his body be buried "in the parish church of St. Mary of Buer," in the tomb he had caused to be made under the arch between the high Altar and the chapel of Jesus, and that he be buried within 24 hours after his decease. He died 30 Jan. 1527-8.
