Notes for Henry Grubbe

[MargrafJM.FTW]

Henry Grube (Esq.) and Agnes Jefferey (born 1559) may be the parents of Thomas Grubbe, born 1581. One source says they are his parents and their marriage date was 1562 in England. The source also says he was a member of Parliament for Devizes Co., England and that he was born in England in 1555 and died in England.

Another source does not mention that Henry Grube has a wife, but does mention him as the father of the Thomas Grubbe born between 1530 and 1559. This same source had the following information from "A Genealology of the Beeson -Beason Family" by Henry Hart Beeson, 1968, p. 7.

"The Grubb family, or Grubbe as it was originally spelled, is of Danish origin, where the Grubbes were very closely connected with the royal family and were very influential during the reigns of Christian IV and Frederick III of Denmark. A Henry Grubbe lived in Hertfordshire, England, where in 1506 he married Joan, daugher of Sir Richard Radcliffe who died in 1485 on Bosworth Field in support of King Richard III."
It is possible that this Henry Grubbe was the son of the Henry Grubbe mentioned above.
