Ann Poole as first wife of Nicholas Street [4 June 2012]

Seems to have been disproved some time ago, although older sources say she was 'likely a Poole'. This webpage Nicholas Street, III (Rev.) Speculative Female Pole gives some info on why is it not the Ann Poole most online trees give it as:

"The "Pedigree of the Family of Walrond of Bovey in the Parish of Seaton and Beer, Co. Devon", obtained from the Devon, England, Record Office, was compiled by A. J. P. Skinner of Colyton and published in the Transactions of the Devon Association in 1907 (vol. 39 pp. 264–266). Skinner quotes Sir William Pole's "Collections towards a Description of the County of Devon" on the Walronds at Bovey House, Beer, including the sentence, "Edmond Walrond is nowe lord of this land, & hath maried Ann my daughter, by whom he hath issue William, John, & others." Skinner also says Ann was buried 9 Mar 1666 at Seaton"

I dont know if any thing else recent has been published on who the first wife of Rev. Street was, though.--DMaxwell 02:21, 4 June 2012 (EDT)
