DEATH: Will: "William Goore of Nether Wallop in the county of Southampton gentleman, 9 November 1587. To wife Joane, eldest son William, all my land called Garlacks. To my four youngest sons Richard, John, Nicholas and William Goore the younger all my land in Newington, in the county of Wilts, and in Basingstoke, in the county of Southampton, and two hundred pounds apiece. To my four daughters Agnes, Elizabeth, Barbara and Margery Goore two hundred pounds apiece. The executors to be my eldest son William Gore and Margaret Reade, the supervisors to be John Pittman of Quarley, Thomas Elie, Clerk vicar of Nether Wallop and Leonard Elie of Wonston."(16) Included with this abstract are a few lines of Latin beginning with the date 10 May 1588, which may refer to the date the will was proved. Amongst the Latin is "Willmi et Margarete Reade als Gore alterius executorum", which may mean "William and Margaret Reade alias Gore alternate as executors", or something to that effect, but it may indicate that Margaret Reade's maiden name was Gore.

General Notes
There appears to be two William Gores, cousins. Some have the William Gore, son of Nicholas Gore, married to Joan Pitman. This William Gore, son of Thomas born about 1550, appears to be a better fit.
