The Will of William Hills (1592 – 1662)

Teresa's Tree and the Goatham / Gotham One-Name Study Posted on 27 October, 2020 by Teresa27 October, 2020

The will of Mary Bedlake née Adams ( -1665/66)

Teresa's Tree and the Goatham / Gotham One-Name Study Posted on 11 February, 2020 by Teresa14 October, 2020

Most that Mary left was to be equally divided between her 4 daughters, the exception being that Marie, the eldest did not inherit £4 like the others. Perhaps there was friction between them: Mary was anxious to prevent a law suit arising, but saw sufficient possibility to appoint others to arbitrate, if necessary. The income from property, sold or let, could be divided without argument, but the value of household items etc. would not be so easy to determine.
