I must say that from my vantage point, it seems to place high importance on a great deal of subjective evidence. I do not think now, having read all of this, that there is conclusive evidence that there were two Anthony Colbys and two Thomas Colbys. I believe the will of Thomas Colby that I have from 1588 is the most concrete evidence to date and it supports my position that Anthony Colby was the second son of Thomas Colby of Beccles.
