nice family setting?:The Saltonstall Family (c 1636-37) in Tate Britain. http://www.kipar.org/period-galle…
The Saltonstall family were prominent under Queen Eliza 1 : Sir Richard Saltonstall (Lord Mayor 1597-8). His son, Sir Thomas, was the well-known parliamentary commander in the Civil War http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/Docu…
Sir Samuel Saltonstall, son of a Lord Mayor of London. He it was who bore the costs of printing Smith's Sea Grammar.....shown are the arms for his blazer ..................
Sir Samuel's first cousin, Sir Richard Saltonstall(1610-1694), founded the Massachusetts branch of the family which continues to this day.....

Sir Richard after his problems with Powers to be, lived off Coleman street in/on Swanne alley.[if that be near the Covent garden market could explain her Ladyships' connection, not wanting to live a life in the wilds of Massachusetts ?.]

After looking up on the Saltonstall family history, the most likely candidate for the "terrible storm" story is not the first (+1630) or second wife of Sir Richard (+1640)(from the picture), but the THIRD wife, Martha Cammock, who became his widow in 1661. She would certainly be called a person of quality. There were two daughters Saltonstall but they were married (and not be called Lady Saltonstall) and the young Sir Richard lived in America so would not have a wife or children in London at the time.

I am from Sevierville Tennessee originally and was wandering if there was any correlation between the Saltonstall family in MA and the one here in TN. Any info is greatly appreciated.
