Elizabeth's first cousin was another Sir Richard Saltonstall, who in 1630 established a North American colony in Massachusetts. This couple had many sons; the Honorable Nathaniel Wyche lived in India and was President of the East India Company in the late 1650s. Another son was the Right Honorable Sir Peter Wyche, Ambassador to Constantinople (Ottoman Empire), who married Jane Meredith. Their children included (the second) Sir Peter Wyche, Sir Cyril Wyche, and Lady Jane Wyche, who married John Granville, 1st Earl of Bath. Rt. Hon. Sir Peter Wyche was one of the Chancellors of Oxford University, and his sons Sir Cyril and Sir Peter were among the founding members of the British Royal Society.
