Talk:Nicholas Lanier

Untitled
I removed the following text—
 * Lanier was married to Lucretia Bassano, daughter of Anthony Bassano, originally of Bassano del Grappa near Venice. The Bassano family were also very accomplished musicians, and over time various members played for Henry VIII, Elizabeth I, and James I.  Nicholas and Lucretia had 10 children, and one son, Clement Lanier, was Gentleman of the King's Privy Chamber.

—because it refers to his grandfather, Nicholas Lanier the Elder (so entitled perhaps for lack of a better name: "Nicholas Lanier (musician)" would refer to both, and "Nicholas Lanier (c. 1630-1618)" is awkward). I was originally going to write an article about him, but now I'm not sure. Nicholas the Elder was the patriarch of the Lanier family of musicians and held various court appointments, etc...but is he notable enough for an article? Ardric47 04:58, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

I just took out that he was born in France, that was also this Nicholas's grandfather. I put in where he was baptised to give a sense of where he was from (presumably somwhere near Greenwich).
