Im also a descendant of Sir Thomas Overbury , so the answer is yes there are also others out there :) - Im in the province of Quebec , montreal. I myself was doing research on the family name and stumbled across this forum - how about yourself?

Yes, his mother Mary Palmer was my 13th/14th Great Aunt who married Nicholas Overbury. (who's Mother was Isabel Elizabeth Rutter........the name Rutter has been used as a first name for girls for several generations in my Palmer family line) Anyway, his murderess, Frances Howard-Carr, is a great cousin of mine from my Mother's side. I also descend from Edward de Vere 17th Earl of Oxford - the REAL Shakespeare. My genealogy is pretty mind blowing. I don't know what to think of it all...............

Oh yes! so you are a Palmer like me. That makes us related. Did your Palmer line end with the Overbury line?
