Personal Information    |    PDF

  • Name Thomasine LANDERE 
    Relationshipwith Teresa Ann GOATHAM
    Born Est 1530 
    • Date estimated from approximate date of birth of third son, William.

      That Thomasine was born a 'Landere' from her father's name in Vivan (shown as recorded in the 1620 visitation). Given that her son William gave the name as a Christian name to a son adds weight to this.
    Gender Female 
    Property Abt 1588  Bannawell, Tavistock, Devon, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • The Churchwardens accounts show that during the year 3 May 1588 to 3 May 1589 fifteen shillings was received from 'Thomasyn Glanvill, widow' for 'tenement, garden, close, and two meadows at Bannawell'.
      (Recorded by Worthy)
      It seems probable that it was this Thomasine and that this is where she was living, although she could have sub-let the property.
    Buried Between 3 May 1594 and 3 May 1595  St. Eustachius’ Church, Tavistock, Devon, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • Although the PRs for this period don't survive, some Churchwardens' accounts for Tavistock Church were published (Worth, 1887) and include an entry for the year 1594 - 1595 showing the names of many of those (not all legible) for whom money was received for their burial (p.40). This includes 'Thomasine Glanvile, widow'.
      It seems almost certain that this was the widow of John.
      A Bill in a Chancery Court case in 1630 suggests she died about 1594 or 5, although answer says October 39 Elizabeth I (i.e. 1597): probably either a mistake in recording the details or the defendants couldn't quite remember.
      (Vivian shows John's widow marrying on 3 May 1585 to one John Godge in Whitchurch. Dartmoor Press transcribed data shows this marriage as 'John Hodge' to 'Tamson Glanvill'; it is clear from the will of John Glanville of Launceston, 1612, that it was his sister, granddaughter of this Thomasine's second husband, who had married John Hodge).

    Family 1 John SKIRRETT, Gent.,   b. Est 1525,   d. Bef 1572  (Age ~ 46 years) 
    Married Bef 1560 
    • Thomasine had been married to John Skirrett before she married John Glanville (according to Chancery case of 1630 - TNA ref. C 2/ChasI/S55/8)

      A son of her son William Skirrett was born about 1584, so the marriage was unlikely to have been any later than 1560, given that William was her third son.
      Alumni oxonienses shows an age for William at matriculation suggesting he was born about 1562; her children are not likely to have been born closer than a year apart suggesting the oldest born no later than 1560, possibly a few years earlier.

    • Names and birth order of sons John, Edward and William recorded in answer in Chancery Court case, TNA ref: C 2/ChasI/S55/8. Thomas is not mentioned in that document (possibly because neither Thomas nor any descendants were livng, or at least had no claim to compete with those in the case), but he is in the Skirrett pedigree in Vivian (citing information provided by Edward for the 1620 visitation); the visitation however makes no mention of John or William so the order of all 4 sons is not clear. Son William named a son Anthony, and an Anthony married in Plymouth in 1598 - possibly Anthony was a son of John and Thomasine as well.

      Vivian shows 3 daughters of John and Thomasine. Alice clearly was their daughter from the Chancery case, the other two shown by Vivan, Margery and Loveday, are not mentioned in that Chancery case. The date of both marriages  would mean they were marrying relatively late in life, if they really were daughters of Thomasine and John. Whilst possible I think they are more likely the daughters of another John (if their father was named as 'John' in the marriage licence info that Vivian saw). Loveday at least appears to have had children both by her marriage to Henry and a subsequent marriage; if she had been the daughter of John and Thomasine as Vivian shows she would have been too old. (I suspect the marriage licence info does not name their father, and am guessing they were the daughters of John and Thomasine's son William - to be investigated further).

      In addition, Mary is described as a sister of Alice in an answer in a Star Chamber Case (see birth notes of Mary for details).
      The unnamed daughter is from a reference in a Chancery Court case deposition in which Edmund Dunriche claims he and 'Justice Glanvill' had married two sisters.
