  • Notes 
    • Error alert: According to dates given in several references, Eleanor married Andrew Monroe when she was 14 years old. At least one reference says that she had been married (1) James Bowcock. I guess it's possible for her to have had a previous marriage at even a younger age, but it doesn't seem likely.
