Hello List, I am a new subscriber and having trouble with the relationship between these two- Robert RICH'S. My connection comes in with the marriage of Francis RICH to Thomas CAMMOCK (d. 1602 Maldon, Essex) "of Layer Marney, Essex"; son of Robert CAMMOCK and Elizabeth BADBY. The sources I have located for information on Francis RICH and her family are often in conflict with each other and it has left me a bit confused. She is thought to have been the daughter of Robert RICH, 2nd Baron RICH, and it is also said that she was the Niece of Robert RICH, Earl of WARWICK. One source states that Thomas CAMMOCK was the nephew of the Earl of Warwick.This would mean that the two Robert's were brothers? I know that it was not uncommon for a family to give the same name to two children, but is that the case here? I also have an unnamed sister to one (or both) of these Roberts that married John SMITH, son of Sir Thomas SMITH (Treasurer of the Virginia Company- and I believe the brother of Capt. John SMITH) and Sarah BLOUNT. I would appreciate any guidance or reliable sources anyone can offer to help me out. Regards, Patrick Payne
