This noble Irish lineage has never been verified and recent research suggests that the lineage is incorrect. In his book, Justice went so far to admit that there was no proof of the ancestry. The parentage of William, therefore, is not yet known.
William Dungan was born about 1606/7 and baptized as an adult on 15 June 1628. William was a perfumer in London. He married, on 27 June 1629 at St. Martin's-in-the-Fields, London, Frances Latham. The baptisms of all four of their children appear in that church's records.
In his will dated 13 September 1636, William left each of his children "three score and ten pounds apiece, to be paid unto them when they shall attaine to their full ages, or daye of marriage." After debts and funeral expenses were paid, the remainder of his estate was to go to his wife Frances, who was named executrix.
His widow was assessed and paid taxes between 29 April 1636 and 16 April 1637. At the time, Frances was residing at Covent Garden, East side of Bedford Street.
About a year after William's death, Frances married Jeremy Clarke.
