Wife of Bishop William Barlow. Daughter of Humphrey Wellesbourne of High Wycombe according to "Women In England Society 1500 - 1800" by Mary Prior. Suggested elsewhere that she might have been from Burtlesham Montague, Berkshire. See Bishop William Barlow for children. Died in Easton, Hampshire where she is memorialized inside St. Mary's Church. Which reads in part:
"Barlow's wife, Agatha, doth here remain
Bishop, then exile, Bishop again
So long she lived, so well her children sped
She saw five bishops her five daughters wed."
