Margaret and her two sisters were heirs of their father (their brother having died young) and I found her husband's (Thomas Gybbes) will and can't find one for her. Surely she had to leave one as she held title to extensive land. There is no listing in the A2A Wills for her; does anyone have a suggestion on where I might find a will on her? I tried all the variant spellings for her maiden name and her married name with no results. > > Her husband does not address any grandchildren in his will, even though he had six by a deceased daughter and probably more from the other two married daughters. He only mentions his living children (3). Any ideas on why he would not mention his grandchildren (none of them)? He left large settlements on his three children amounting to thousands of pounds. > > Thanks for your ideas.
