Farrer and Curwen, i. 215; CAD, i. B1388. The genealogy of the Duckett family is confused by G.F. Duckett, Duchetiana, 16-17, and Herald and Genealogist, vi. 216-17, where the MP is said to have married Mabel, da. of Sir Roger Bellingham. She was, in fact, his son’s wife. It is also evident, on chronological grounds, that at least one of his sons, and probably both, were the issue of an early, undocumented, marriage.
