This particular bible was Lady Janet's and this was her history in her own
hand of the births and deaths of her own children.
It is therefore a primary source and quoted verbatim in Michinson's book.
The fact that illegitimate children, if there were any, might not make it to
this page is irrelevant to the question at hand which was: did Sir John have
a brother James and the answer is yes if you can accept the source .. his
own and James own mother.
