  • Notes 
    • == Biography == Elizabeth was the daughter of [[Colepeper-11|Walter Culpepper]] and [[Aucher-1|Ann Aucher]].<ref> Philipot, John and Camden, William. ''The Visitation of Kent: Take in the Years 1619-1621''. [https://books.google.com/books?id=Xq1zM7rt9LkC&pg=PA53&lpg=PA53&dq=nethersole+wilsford&source=bl&ots=M2tPOt3G8E&sig=7Zz_0hWASiFfvzgbZybH54_HJfo&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjbsIiLkt_eAhVGneAKHcCzBkIQ6AEwDXoECAEQAQ#v=onepage&q=nethersole%20wilsford&f=false]</ref> Her date of birth is unknown, but has been estimated at about 1483.
      At some time before 1514 Elizabeth married Thomas Wilford, son of James Wilsford and Elizabeth Betenham. Elizabeth is named in her father's will written in 1514. She was clearly married by then as he refers to her as "my daughter Elizabeth Welford". <ref>Sussex Archaeological Society, Sussex Archaeological Collections Vol 47., Abstract of the will of Walter Colepeper 1516. https://archive.org/details/sussexarchaeolog47suss/page/n119 </ref>
      Elizabeth and Thomas had 4 sons (Sir James; Francis, Gent; William; & Nicholas) and 9 daughters (Anne, wife of Richard Tucke; Elizabeth, wife of George Clerke, Esq; Constance, wife of John Dingley; Katherine, wife of Henry Hades; Mary, wife of George Covert; Bridget, wife of Leonard Digges, <ref>Thomas Digges. Wikipedia. Accessed by Michael Boynton on January 10, 2016 at 6:35 AM. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Digges</ref> Esq; Clara; Winifred; wife of (Mr.) Smythe; & Joan, wife of William Roydon, Esq., of John Sydenham, & of Thomas Perrye, Gent.)
      Elizabeth had died by 1532 as her mother's will, written on 4 Sep 1532, makes provision for 'the children of Elizabeth, my daughter… the children of Thomas Wylford.' <ref>Sussex Archaeological Society, Sussex Archaeological Collections Vol 47., Abstract of the will of Ann Colepeper 1532. https://archive.org/details/sussexarchaeolog47suss/page/n121</ref>
