Notes - (Research):I thought Dewnes' husband may have been called Stephen; Vivian shows Dewnes' father as Stephen Vosper, and I thought he probably meant husband. However, a quitclaim of 1600 refers to 'Henry Vosper of Tavistock, merchant, and Dewnes his wife'.
Possibly Stephen was Henry's father (he may have been the Stephen of Liskeard for whom admon. was granted in 1613).

Family Dewnes GLANVILLE, b. Est 1574, bur. 16 Sep 1635, The Church of St. Mary Blessed Virgin, Plympton St. Mary, Devon, England (Age ~ 61 years)
Other Partners: Sir William STRODE, Knight m. 31 Mar 1625Married Between 30 Aug 1598 and 1600 - Dewnes was a Vosper when she married Sir William Strode.
Dewnes was still a Glanville when her father wrote his will in 1598, but a quitclaim of 1600 refers to 'Henry Vosper of Tavistock, merchant, and Dewnes his wife' DHC ref.: 1262M/T/1161 (so far I have only seen the catalogue entry which does not give the actual date).
They probably married in Tavistock but the PRs don't go back far enough to see.
It must be this Dewnes who married Henry Vosper as her cousin with the same name married Thomas Polwhele in 1605/6 (evidence for both from wills).
