Note on Husband: Samuel FOLEY - shared note

Their marriage licence is dated Aug 12 1708. Samuel Foley Esq of St Bride's Bachelor, 20, his parents dead (consent of his uncle & guardian William More of the same parish) & Dorothea Richards of St Margaret's Westminster, Spinster, 17 (consent of her father Nicholas Richards, Esq; at St Bride's. Source: Allegations for Marriage Licences issued by the Bishop of London 1611 to 1828. The Harleian Society 1887, page 337 Year of birth calculated from age stated on Marriage Licence I think that he is the Samuel Foley who was the eldest son of Samuel Foley Bishop of Down and grandson of Elizabeth Richards sister of Col Solomon Richards. There is an old reference in The Ussher Memoirs by William Ball-Wright which says that the Samuel who married Elizabeth Richards was of Ripon, Clonmel and Dublin. This link to Ripon makes the identity more likely. And if so then the Bishop's wife's surname was probably Moore
