Name Dionisia GLANVILLE Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born Abt 1584 - Shown on her parents monument as their fourth child, born between sons Francis and John, and so based on their approximate dates of birth.
The inscriptions on the Glanville Memorial
Named on her father's memorial "3
Dionilia [sic] nupta Thomæ Polwheile ar:" (the number '3' indicates birth order)Gender Female Died Aft 1631 - Living when her mother wrote her will.
Data transcribed from Wiltshire PRs by the Wiltshire FHS (on FMP, viewed 27 Apr 2016) shows a "Dyanishew Pollwheel" was buried in Broad Hinton on 6 Jan 1655.
I think it was probably this Dionisia, visiting or living with her brother John's family.

John and Alice Glanville and their (headless) children
It is curious that the effigies of the children have been beheaded (5) and disappeared altogether (2), while John and Alice have remained more-or-less intact (some damage to their noses seems to have occurred but been repaired).
Mrs Bray and others claim the damage was done by parliamentarian troops during the civil wars. While noting that there is no evidence given Gerry Woodcock notes that the "family ... at Kilworthy, provided ... the most prominent spokesmen in Tavistock of the royalist…Family ID F7814 Family Group Page | Family Chart
Family Thomas POLWHELE, b. Bef 1585, d. Aft 1620 (Age ~ 36 years) Married 3 Mar 1605/06 St. Breage’s Church, Breage, Cornwall, England - Dionisia was married to Thomas when her mother had the Glanville Memorial erected in Tavistock Church.
From PR entry (image on FamilySearch, viewed 5 Jun 2022)
"Thomas Polwheele, (filius Digorii Polwheele de parochia Sti. Earme Armigeri,) et Duena Glanvill, (filia Johis Glanvill defuncti olim unus ex Justiciariis Domini Regis de Curia Common plees) nupti fuere Tercio die Marcii"
[ translates:
"Thomas Polwheele (the son of Digory Polwheele of the parish of St Earme [Erme] Esquire) and Duenes (the daughter of John Glanvill, deceased, formerly one of the Lord Justices of the King's Court of Common Pleas) were married the third day of March"]
Vivian (Cornwall visitations) also shows the marriages as 3 Mar; the Cornwall OPC database is clearly in error in showing 2 Mar.
Breage is where the Godolphin family home was, so we may assume Dionisia was living down there with her mother and step-father, hence her marriage being there.
