The marriage brought him a son and two daughters. The son Thomas Elyot became well known as author; and one of the daughters, Margaret[3][4] was the mother of George Puttenham.[1]
Elyot later married Elizabeth, widow of Richard Fettiplace of East Shefford and daughter and heiress of William Bessels of Besselsleigh.[1]
