Individual Details

Richard Nuthall I

(Abt 1495 - Aft 1518)

Robert Glover, Somerset Herald in the College of Arms, during the Visitation at Cheshire in 1580, recorded of Richard NUTHALL I, "20 H. 7." Of this information, John NUTHALL II was Glover’s source. This means that Richard NUTHALL I was either born or known to have been alive in the twentieth year of the reign of Henry VII (Henry Tudor, Earl of Richmond). Since the coronation of Henry VII occurred on 30 October 1485, the twentieth year of his reign began on 30 October 1505, thus proposing 1505/06 as a possible year of birth for Richard NUTHALL I. [See The Visitation at Cheshire of 1580: Nuthall of Cattenhall.] Henry VII was, in fact, declared king at the Battle of Redmoor Plain (Bosworth Field) on 22 August 1485. But Richard NUTHALL II, the son of Richard NUTHALL I, began engendering offspring about the year 1539 so that the more likely date of birth of Richard NUTHALL I must have closer to 1495. It is possible that, for Richard NUTHALL I, 1505/06 is a date of confirmation rather than that of christening.
