    Surrey Archaeological Collections,
    LI, pp. 85-90; which shows that, in John Legh’s will of 1523-4, none of the Howard daughters were mentioned, but in Isabel his wife’s will in 1527, all three daughters were named, with Isabel naming Mary as her goddaughter, which was probably after John’s death. It has been argued that ‘infant girls did not warrant mention as beneficiaries in a will’ (Baldwin Smith, p. 194), but this fails to take into account the fact that Isabel Legh decided to include all three girls; while other infant females from the Legh family were included in the earlier will. See
    Visitations of Cornwall
    (J. L. Vivian, ed.), pp. 4-5; H. Howard,
    Memorials of the Howard Family
    (1834), 1-26; Baldwin Smith,
    A Tudor Tragedy,
    pp. 194-6. The unknown author of
    The Chronicle of Henry VIII
    (ed. Martin Hume, London, 1889), p. 75, suggested that Katherine was about fifteen in 1539-40. See later in this chapter. Mary Howard married Edmund Trafford some years later, he having been born in 1526. The fact that he was born in this year, and that Mary was apparently still unwed at the time of her sister’s reign as queen, suggests that she was the youngest Howard daughter. For a Lambeth birth, see
    LP
    XVI 1395 (indictment against the queen). Some suspected Katherine was born at Oxenhoath in Kent; see Brenan and Stratham,
