Notes:
The contention that this child, with this birthdate, was a daughter of Charles Howard, 1st Earl of Nottingham, is very thinly supported. Several family genealogies assign Joan Howard as a daughter of this Charles Howard but with an inconsistent 1530 birth date for her, three years before her father was born. Only one source exists for the contention that she was born in 1560. This is found in an LDS Church Pedigree Resource File published on their PRF CD #76. The information was provided to LDS by one Wallace K Penrose of 4339 Bennion Road, Taylorsville, Utah 84119-5451 but, as usual with LDS information, no sources were provided by Mr. Penrose, and as of this writing I have not made contact with him. For these reasons this entire royal line for Winfield Gallup is very questionable.
Notes:
Some records attribute a second wife to David, a "Mary Wilder", but this is speculated as being a confusion with the same Mary as the wife a first husband, Jonathan Wilder.
Notes:
Charles Howard was the 11th great grandfather of Winfield Dyer Gallup. Burke's Peerage tells that he was the 2nd Baron Howard of Effingham and became the 1st Earl of Nottingham 22 Oct 1596. Burke also notes that he became the Lord High Admiral of the English Fleet and was Commander in Chief of the English Fleet defeating the Spanish Armade in 1588.
In Burke's Peerage we also find that he married 1 July 1563 Catherine (died 25 Feb 1602/3), daughter of Henry Cary (aka Lord Hunsdon) by whom he had two sons, William & Charles, and three daughters, including Elizabeth who married Sir Robert Southwell. Catherine died 25 Feb 1602/3 and on 2 Sep 1603 Charles married Margaret, daughter of 2nd Earl of Moray and by her had other children. After the death of Charles on 14 Dec 1624, she married again on 23 Oct 1625, the 1st and last Viscount Monson of Castlemaine, as his first wife. The Viscount died 5 Aug 1639.
