    'Rachel Hopton was born in 1594 in Monmouthshire, Wales. ... She married, firstly, David Kemeys. She married, secondly, Thomas Morgan, son of Sir William Morgan and Elizabeth Wintour, in 1621. She died in 1654 at Monmouthshire, Wales.'

    If she died as late as 1654, she and Thomas Morgan must have divorced. Probably the death year is incorrect.
