Sir Robert remained loyal to Catholic faith (as has his descendants ever since) and was probably responsible for the priest holes at Coughton Court; he was grandfather of Robert Catesby of Gunpowder Plot fame. A younger brother, Nicholas, was primarily a protestant and was ambassador to France & Scotland under Elizabeth I. It was his daughter Elizabeth who married Walter Raleigh.
