 Elizabeth died in August 1699, aged thirty-three; and Katherine

Lady Anne Howe was the sister of Henry King, late Bishop of 

 Chichester. Mrs King is presumed to have been the daughter of 

 Sir Richard Hobart, and widow of Dr Philip King, the brother 

 of the Bishop of Chichester. 4 Mr William Milward, of Christ 

 Church, Oxford, and Mrs Eliza Milward, were most likely distantly 

 related to Walton, 5 in the way before alluded to. His cousin 

 Dorothy Kenrick was the daughter of Edward Kenrick, by Susan, 

 sister and co-heiress of Sir William Cranmer. 6 Mr Garrard 

 seems to have been allied to the family of Walton's son-in-law, Dr 

 Hawkins. 7 Mrs Nelson is supposed to have been of the family 

 of the Reverend Henry Nelson, rector of Haugham, in Lincoln-

 Anne married Bishop Sanderson. 8 The Lord Bishop of Sarum
