  1. 1.  John Welbancke was born about 1480 in North Cowton; died after 1546.

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Note: This approx birth date is based on the assumption that he is the father of brothers William and George, who feature in a land dispute of 1558-79. There is no direct evidence of this, there may be more than one Welbancke family in North Cowton at this time.

  2. 5.  Robert Welbancke Descendancy chart to this point (3.George2, 1.John1) was born about 1530 in North Cowton; died in 1580? in North Cowton.

    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Note: His children are all speculatively linked to him, just so they are in a family tree and easy to navigate to. Isabel was born to a Robert, before his death was recorded, so is a reasonable supposition. John was brought before the courts for vagrancy in 1616, there is no info about his age or parentage, but he could be Robert's son. Robert, ancestor of current Welbanks, might be his eldest son. They both own land in N Cowton. But there are several men in North Cowton having families around this time, so any of them could have been his father.
    • Note: 1558; 1558-1579 courtcase Welbancke v Welbancke, Ralph vs Robert re property in N Cowton. Rauf complains that he is entitled to his father William's property, Robert maintains that William gave it to his brother George, who was Robert's father.

    Notes:

    Died:
