Wolverine (!!!) Bentley 1527 Wolverton, Shropshire, England
Married (Jane) Barker 1552 Wolverton, Shropshire, England
(This enigmatic figure is listed by many people as 'W Bentley... married (?) Barker' throughout the LDS site, with the same birth and marriage year, and all in Shropshire... they are many years earlier than any other entry... and appear to be common ancestors of all the Bentley's in the area. Only one intrepid soul has named the couple as Wolverine and Jane, and if you read this, I'd love to know where the info is from, it fascinates me :-) Used as a Christian name, this would indicate an Anglo-Saxon heritage, named after Lady Wulfruna, the founder of Wolverhampton in approximately 985AD, and I believe is more likely to have been Wulfrun, Wulhere or similar than Wolverine. I'm also uncertain how Wolverton came to be in Shropshire when it's actually in Hampshire or Lincolnshire! Perhaps Wolverton Crossing, Wollerton or Wolverly in Salop?
