Florence Molesworth
d.1769
Facts and Events
As can be seen in the pedigree chart below, within five generations in Florence's pedigree we reach ancestors who all have well documented linage from English royalty. Looking at that pedigree there is only one gap at the sixth generation which appears to be universally accepted that there is no documentation naming the wife of Hugh Cuffe. Going Onto the Seventh Generation this is where the gaps become considerable in the pedigree chart.
Her great grand daughter Florence Molesworth Hawtrey wrote a family history book, The History of the Hawtrey Family
