General Notes
Grabriel's mother was Ann. She was left "one paire of gooses" in his will, so his mother Ann must have survived him. He also had a brother Thomas and a sister Margerie.
Probably as mother (and borthers and sister) survived, Gabried was about 35 to 45 when he died, and this sons had not married (as no grandghildren are mentioned in his will).
