Knights made by the Lord Admiral after taking of Morlaix "for their
hardness and courage". He was probably about 18 at this time. Bravery,
family, standing, etc. counted more than a mature age.
Over the years, many Husseys of England and Ireland were knighted. Half
brother, William was knighted in 1513.
According to the Lincolnshire Pedigrees; Sir Giles Hussey of Caythorpe,
Knight, knighted by the Earl of Surrey at the Sacking of Morlaix in
France 1522.
There is a more recent series "The Complete Peerage" that clears up the
matter placing Anne Grey as Hussey's second (2nd) wife rather than the first
wife. The Giles that died as an infant or young child was of the first
wife.
Wills have been found of John Hussey and Anne Grey. John's dated
October 22, 1535, has provisions for wife, Lady Anne, sons William,
Thomas, Gilbert and Sir Giles and others. Lady Anne's will was dated
March 1, 1544/5 and probated February 11, 1545/6, mentions two daughters
and sons Sir William and Sir Giles. If you have access to "Ancestral
Roots of Sixty Colonists", Fifth Edition by Frederick Lewis Weis with
additions and revisions by Walter Lee Shepard, Jr. you will find links
between John and Anne (Grey) Hussey back to the Planteganets and beyond.
