The names are confused by the addition of ‘-Jodrell’ as a second barrel after this Register.
She is in Burke’s peerage of 2003, vol 3, p. 3269 and it does not show any children of her marriage to John Powys Dewhurst. (She was descended from a baronet and Burke gives the Ramsden arms as Argent on a chevron between three fleurs-de-lys sable as many ram’s heades couped at the neck argent.)
