Probate Records

Editorial history

Created 11/05/13, by CSG

Purpose

The Probate Records page is an index to all probate records contained in the MarineLives-Tools wiki. New probate records can be added by users of the MarineLives-Tools wiki who have registered with the MarineLives project team.

The MarineLives-Tools wiki is a companion wiki to Annotate HCA 13/72. Both wikis are made available free of charge to anyone (whether academic, student, or enthusiast) who takes an interest in the history of the Early Modern world.

The wikis are the creation of the MarineLives project team, an academic/public history group, dedicated to the transcription, annotation and use of English Admiralty Court records, 1650-1669.

The MarineLives team will be adding content to the MarineLives-Tools wiki over the next few weeks.

The scrivener, Thomas Bruce, appears to have died two or three years later, with his will proved in July 1656. See HCA 13/72 f.55v
5. ↑ The fifty year old Gillingham baker, Robert Burdin, gave a witness statement on the behalfe of Henry Jolfe, the late master of a Rochester hoy. Jolfe's wages had not been paid. Burdin argued that Jolfe had performed well as master, since one of the hoy's owners gave Jolfe "a peece of Cotton to make his children coates, which hee sayd hee gave him for his care in his sayd imployment." See HCA 13/72 f.319r
6. ↑ The brothers Edward and John Bushell were in partnership, trading with Portugal, Brazil, Barbados and elsewhere. For a time, John Bushell was resident in Lisbon. See HCA 13/72 f.294v

8. ↑ See HCA 13/72 f.105v
9. ↑ John Daniel, a forty year old Notary publique of the city of London, was a deponent in HCA 13/72 f.16v
10. ↑ Jenkin Ellis was the subject of extensive litigation over his wharf between Saint Catherine's dock and Saint Catherine's stairs. See for example: HCA 13/72 f.350r
11. ↑ John Grant was a forty-nine year old mariner of Gillingham, Kent, when he was deposed in June 1658 in the case of Henry Jolfe, late master of the hoy the Thomas and Katherine against its owners for his wages. See HCA 13/72 f.319r
12. ↑ Thomas Grant was a fifty year old mariner of London, who had sailed as master of ships on multiple voyages within the Mediterranean over twenty years. It is possible, though somewhat unlikely, that his will is that of the Thomas Grant, mariner, of Mariner of Saint Botolph without Aldgate, proved in January 1680. See HCA 13/72 f.189r
13. ↑ Thomas Gregg, a forty-four year old pewterer of the parish of Saint Andrew in holborne, London, was deposed in March 1658 regarding the loss of tin sent in the Isaack from Plymouth.

17. ↑ A suit was brought in the HCA in March 1658 against the ship the Providence by Catherine kilverth. The suit, in which the stationer and printer, Hezekiah Usher of Boston, New England, was deposed, mentions Roger Kilvart and Company. On the assumption that this Roger Kilverth was a London merchant and was deceased, this is a probable match with the will of Roger Kilvert, merchant of London, which was proved in September 1657. See HCA 13/72 f.273v
18. ↑ Robert Moulins, a pewterer of Saint Margaret Lothbury London, was deposed in March 1658 regarding the loss of tin sent from Plymouth on the Isaack. He may be the same man whose will was proved later that year, in September 1658, suggesting he died an early death at around the age of thirty. Alternatively the will may have been of an eponymous relative. See HCA 13/72 f.272r
19. ↑ A Rederiff mariner named Roger Paxton was deposed in April 1658 on behalf of Joseph Dobins, master of the Peter, regarding a voyage from Lisbon to Brazil. This may be the same Roger Paxton, also of Redriff, Surrey, whose will was proved in March 1700, which would place him at roughly seventy-two years of age at his death. However, the will may also be that of a relative. See HCA 13/72 f.281r

30. ↑ John Tuffley, a twenty-one year old cooper of the parish of Saint Olave Hartstreete was deposed in May 1658 in a case concerning sugar brought to London in the Oporto Merchant. Tuffley was at the time a servant to the cooper Alexander fowler, who was usually imploed by Alexander Bence and Edward Bushell in their affairs. This may be the same John Tuffley, whose will, showing him as a cooper of Saint Botolph Algate London, was proved in 1686. This would make Tuffley ca. forty-nine years of age at his death. See HCA 13/72 f.297v
31. ↑ Adrian Vanderpost, Joseph Tilley, Robert Cordell and company were the owners of the fortune in 1654 and 1655, which was sent to Salley and Santa Cruse in Barbary, and then put in at Cadiz in Spain due to foul weather. See HCA 13/72 f.17r

34. ↑ The London merchant John Wheake was aged thirty-two when he was deposed in the case of Swan against Whittle in June 1657.
