Subject: A medley of Hoo, Bourchier, Boleyn, etc

I have come across an entry in Miscellanea Genealogica and Heraldica
VIII, part V pp 133-5, March 1933. This was by J R Twisden about an
ornamental Pedigree of 1679 prepared for Sir Wm Twysden probably by
someone in the College of Arms (that usually reliable source :-) ).
I have found various reports that confirm some of this but I have not
seen confirmation of it all.
One real problem is that the author did not give the names of the wives,
just their coats of arms. (Wm Twysden was undoubtedly trying to show
connections with the Great and the Good and women, queens apart, were
not counted...)
I am presenting this diagramatically as that it how it was devised; I do
not think any listing would communicate the links. You'll need to put
it in a fixed font (e.g. Courier) to make sense of it.
All comments, as ever, gratefully received:

Q Eliz
I have added some info in brackets that I have found from other sources,
particularly the Sander connection which lead to the Twysdens. While I
"know" from other sources that Eleanor Hoo married James Carew (of
Beddington), I do not know that she was the daughter of Thomas Lord Hoo.
I have absolutely no confirmation of the marriage of a Bourchier
daughter with Thomas Bryan the father of Elizabeth Bryan.
For those who are interested, the original document gave the blazons of
the arms of the various wives including those whose names were not given
at all.
