    2. George Peaslee sent me an update on those URLs Margo and Leslie posted. They are: http://www.rootsweb.com/~maessex/wills/coreyg.htm http://www.rootsweb.com/~maessex/wills/marting.htm I can see my 9×great grandpa George Martin left a highly unusual will by leaving the bulk of his estate to his wife. This was rarely done during most of the 19th century, much less the 17th. If I remember what my mother told me correctly, he had a falling out with his eldest son and it looks like the father cut George Jr. out completely. Maybe this was why the Martins didn't put more effort into having their property reinstated after Susannah was executed. With the Martin family situation being so complicated, her persecutors probably saw her as easy prey for confiscation.
