From "Berkeley lineage" in "Burkes Gentry", Vol.1, p.86.

Henry Greene and Elizabeth Berkeley
Henry was Esq. of Wykin, Co. Warwick.  Elizabeth was heiress of Cotheridge Court (7 km west of Worcester).
More information on the Berkeley line in Wikipedia on Berkeley and Cotheridge Court in Worcestershire.

George Bohun, of Coundon, Co Warwick, last heir male.
His father is Ralph Bohun (1639-1716), his mother Prudence Hovel. Their ancestors can (in part) be traced back to the early 14th century.

Rowland Green and Mary Bohun
Born Rowland Green, he assumed the surname Berkeley in 1696 per the terms of the will of his maternal grandfather (who had lost his heir son) and succeeded him at Cotheridge Hall. He held the office of High Sheriff of Worcestershire in 1711 (summarized from Berkeley and Cotheridge Court).
The name of Rowland Green's father and of Mary Bohun's father have been taken from noblecircles.com. No further ancestors are given there.
Wikitree.com gives 10 children, among them Dorothy, born about 1707.
Source on names of Rowland: "Burke's Genealogical and .... Landed Gentry, Volume 1" (link see above).
Mary was Coheiress Bohun.

William Calcott and Dorothy Berkeley
William is of Berwick Parish of Atchom, Co. Salop (Shropshire).
