Notes

I have linked Lt Col John Bourchier as son of Daniel Bourchier.
I can't find any documentary. The evidence is thin, only from this source: 'http://bourchier.net/Charts/Chart%2021.html'

This page 'https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Bourchier-482' identifies 3 of Daniel's children, with sources provided.
However, Daniel had at least two more children, so maybe more. The military connection continues down, as does the John Bourchier name, and dates seem OK. The Macnamara name continues down to Hugh Arthur, so a reasonable call.
