Marriage and issue
Jane Radcliffe married Anthony Browne, 1st Viscount Montague (d. 19 October 1592), the oldest son of Sir Anthony Browne and his first wife, Alice Gage. Anthony Browne was not yet Viscount Montague at the time of their marriage, therefor, Jane Radcliffe Browne was never Viscountess Montague. He was not created, 1st Viscount Montague until 1554, several years after her death. Jane and Anthony Browne had 2 children, twins, a boy and a girl, born 22 July 1552:[4]
- Anthony Browne (22 July 1552 – 29 June 1592), who married Mary Dormer, the daughter of Sir William Dormer (d.1575) by his second wife Dorothy Catesby, the daughter of Anthony Catesby, esquire. Anthony Browne predeceased his father by four months, leaving a son, Anthony, who succeeded as 2nd Viscount Montague, as well as another son, John, and three daughters, Dorothy, who married Edmund Lee, esquire, Jane, who married Sir Francis Englefield (c.1561 – 26 October 1631), 1st Baronet Englefield, and Katherine, who married a husband surnamed Throckmorton.[5] Anthony Browne's widow, Mary Dormer, married secondly, Sir Edmund Uvedale (d. 6 April 1606), and thirdly, Sir Thomas Gerard (d. 16 February 1621), son and heir of Sir Thomas Gerard by Elizabeth, daughter and co-heiress of Sir John Port. In her will dated 20 July 1637, Mary Dormer requested that she be buried at Midhurst, Sussex, near her first husband, Anthony Browne.
- Mary Browne (22 July 1552 – 4 November 1607) married (1) Henry Wriothesley, 2nd Earl of Southampton (2) Thomas Heneage (3) William Hervey.
