Dear Newsgroup ~

One last item on the descendants of Elizabeth Owen, wife of Nicholas
Dering, Esq.

I find there is a biography of her great-grandson, Richard Dering, a
musician, in the Dictionary of National Biography, 14 (1888), pg.,398,
which may be viewed at the following weblink:

http://books.google.com/books?id=hSwJAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA398&dq=Edward+Bold+Dering&lr=#v=onepage&q=Edward%20Bold%20Dering&f=false

The biography states that Richard Dering left an undated PCC will, in
which he names his aunt, Barbara Bold. The will was proven 27 April
1630 by his first cousin, Edward Bold, presumably son of his aunt,
Barbara Bold.

Barbara Bold was Barbara Dering, wife of William Bold, who was a
granddaughter of Elizabeth (Owen) Dering. In a previous post, I
mistakenly spelled the name of Barbara Dering's husband as William
Gold. Bold is the correct spelling.

Best always, Douglas Richardson, Salt Lake City, Utah
