The ancestry of Matthew HOWARD is unknown. One theory of his ancestry, the HOWARD-ARUNDELL theory has been found to have no validity.
Another theory, the HOWARD-DOUGLAS theory, is that Matthew was a great grandson of Thomas HOWARD and Margaret DOUGLAS (niece of King Henry VIII).
This theory is also highly improbable. The foundation of Moss' theory rests on a false premise, that does not show a union between the HOWARD and DOUGLAS families as he implied
Matthew HOWARD and wife Anne had children:
1. Anne HOWARD b. ca. 1637; m. James GRENEFFE; living 1686
