This is supported by the evidence. However what is not supported is both the named wife of RICHARD TWISS, FRANCES BRODERICK, and any familial relationship to EARL OF POWIS and LORD CHERBURY. Letters from JANE TWISS, after her husband's death in 1682, clearly show that at the time of his death his wife was named JANE and not FRANCES, and since the Shropshire registers also show Richard married JANE by 1642, the above record (of FRANCES BRODERICK) must be discounted Additional Comments: First wife SARA about 1634 Son ROBERT b.1635 Fitz Par.Regs Second wife JANE 1642,Supported by HERBERT CORRESPONDENCE Children Son RICHARD 1643, MARY 1645, GEORGE 1650...MARY married GEORGE RADLEY, KNOCKRAUR, her son was FRANCIS RADLEY esq, Knockraur,who married CATH HALL 1696......RICHARD TWISS, son of MARTIN, married ELIZABETH RADLEY 1756. grand daughter of FRANCIS RADLEY.
