    Recently I came across the Will, dated 10 Aug.,1630, of one Freschevile Holles of Great Grimesby (sic), Lincs., which can be found in "Memorials of the Holles Family, 1493 - 1656", edited by Alfred Cecil Wood, and published in London in 1937. This will confirms several parts of the said pedigree:- Freschevile Holles was a cousin of John Kirton's wife Frances (called "Mrs. Francis (sic) Kirton" in the will), and was the father of Gervase Holles, who was the husband of Dorothy Kirton, the only daughter of Mr. John Kirton, Gent. of Grimsby, who evidently died in 1634.
