References

1534 will of Sir George Puttenham list both Dorothy & Audrey [& others] as daughters.

Pedigrees from the Visitation of Hampshire Page 17: Puttenham. < Archive.Org > Shows daughters Audrey, Dorothey, and Elizabeth (m. Thomas Oxenbridge) as children of wife Rose Gainsford. Page 18: see Alice nee Windsor (1st wife of Sir George Puttenham) also with a daughter named Dorothy, and this one the wife of Thomas Dabridgecourt. So according to this source Sir George had two daughters,named Dorothy, which is a bit strange, but certainly isn't evidence that Dorothy Dabridgecourt was the daughter of Rose Gaynsford.
