    • (assumed from baptism)

    • From IGI and DP CD; agree
      William Vogwill, son of George and Elizabeth
    Gender Male 
    Bequest 15 Nov 1805 to 28 Jan 1827 
    • In his will George Vogwell left 2/6 to each of his children living at the time of his death, to be paid to them a year after his death.
      William was living when his father wrote his will in 1805, so whatever his father had in mind would have applied to him, although he died before his father's death in 1827, so neither he nor his children would have received this.
      For my comments on this see the page with my transcription of the will.

      Shows George Vogwell married Elizabeth Hannaford, both otp, married by Banns, both made their mark as also did witness William Vogwell. The other witness was Nathaniel Tremill, who was witness to most marriages in Widecombe at this time and so almost certainly Parish Clerk. (William was probably George's brother though could have been his father. Siblings or other young people were more often witnesses than parents)
