| A monument at Shrivenham suggests that the above tree is wrong. This says that the Martha who married Oliver Pleydell was actually the daughter of John Brind. See Draft Pedigree of Brind of Wanborough & Stanton Fitz-Herbert although there is no obvious John Brind of an age to be the father of Martha in 1617. |
