SirWilliam is said tohave been very keen in advanci n g thReformation.(Troubles of OurCatholic Forefathers, Sec. 3, pp. 46, 69,83,92) (13V.32 8 ) . He marriedUrsula, daughter of Sir George Gale ofYork,Master ofthe Mint andsometime L o r d Mayor there. George Gale, inhiswill, 1536,gave hisdughter Ursula and her husband twe n t y pounds.

His heir was Sir John Mallory of Studley and Hutton whoseeldestsonandheir was Sir Will i a m Mallory, Esq., of Studley andHutton.SirWilliamwas five years old at the time of the H e r ald'sVisitationtoYork, 1585.(13V. 442). Therefore the statement in theVirginia Magazi n e(14 V. 101)that Thomas Mallory, ancestor of theVirginia Mallorys, wasasixth sonof Si r J o hn Mallory of Studley (above)was in error.Thisprobably arosefrom the fact that pages 4 42 - 443 of themagazineweretransposed (See 14V. 101). Thomas Mallory was born about1566 . Therefore, he could not bea younger brother of William Mallory,Esq.,whowas born in 1580.
