Relationships

Father: Henry (or Hugh, or John) Auger (or Anger or Ancher or Ager or Agar).

Mother: Emma de Urswick.

The 1614 Visitation of Nottinghamshire (p. 136) gives the father’s name as Hugh Ager and the mother as a “d. & heire of ...Urswick”. It notes that Harl. 1400 gives the father’s name as Henry. The 1619 Visitation of Leicestershire (p. 52) gives the father’s name as John Agar and the mother as the “Da. & hey. of Urswick”. The Visitation of London (p. 8 fn) gives the mother as “the doughter and heire of Urswike”. The coats of arms described by Ellis (p. 329) support the relationship between Auger/Anger and Urswicke. Urwick (pp. 42-43) gives the father’s name as Mr. Ancher and the mother as Emma de Urswick, whom he conjectures was an adopted daughter of a Mr. Crisp, since she bore the arms of Crisp of Thanet. Urwick states that Mr. Ancher was of a Kentish family. Urwick notes that because we do not know the Christian name of Emma’s father, we cannot give her parentage with certainty, although he says she was of a “comparatively obscure” branch of the Urswick family resident in Lincolnshire or Kent.

Spouse: Thomas Draper.

This relationship is given by the 1614 Visitation of Nottinghamshire (p. 136) and the 1619 Visitation of Leicestershire (p. 52). The coats of arms described by Ellis (p. 329) are supporting evidence.

Children:

Thomas Draper (died 1 June 1493) married (1) Alice Kettleby; married (2) Joan.
