Cathedral antiquities, historical and descriptive accounts.... volume 6 by John Britton, Edward Blore, John le Keux, William Marchant confirms this date but it must be wrong as the Bishop died in 1604 having married for the third time. It is likely that 1613 is the date for the erection of the memorial and that Abigail had died whilst the Bishop was still at Worcester Why else would the memorial be there.)[:add] [add:]( Oxford Dictionary of National Biography mentions the third wife as Hester Pedigree Goldsborough of Goldsborough indicates third wife as Hester Mitchell and the Bishop's brother as Thomas who was also at Cambridge (http://ingilbyhistory.ripleycastle.co.uk/ingilby 3/GOLDESBOROUGH%20of%20Goldesborough.pdf).
