However, the monument erected in the late 1700s in St. Dunstan’s church in Cranbrook ascribes a son Martin to Walter’s second wife, stating that Isabel Culpepper “had issue by him whilst in sanctuary a son named Martin who became a priest.” This monument also names “John who died before his father, without issue male” as Walter’s issue by Margaret Penn, and it claims Alice Naylor had issue by Walter “several children, of whom the eldest son was Thomas.”[114] The Kent visitations attribute two sons, Thomas of Cranbrook and William of Battell, to Walter’s marriage to Alice Naylor,[115] while the Sussex visitation lists Clement of Wingham and a daughter Joane married to Tuke in addition to Thomas and William as Walter’s issue by Alice.[116] The 1629 Roberts pedigree attributes children Mary, John, and Joan to Margaret, son Martin to Isabel, and children Elizabeth, Thomas, Dorothy, Clement, William, Anne, George, and Edmund to Alice.[117] The 1592 Roberts pedigree lists the same three children under Margaret, but states that Isabel “broughte forth three Sonnes whereof Twoe dyed presentlye and ye thirde called Martine survived” and adds a daughter Joan and a son John to the list for Alice.[118] In his 1522 will, Walter Roberts names eight sons and seven daughters, listing the daughters after his seven living sons as residual heirs to most of his lands in Kent."
