Mrs. Elizabeth Izatt's Archive Record, Karen Stedman's Baptism records from Lenham Parish, David Gilroy Sept. 1990 List, Mrs Kitty Jarvis' marriage records from Lenham Parish and Mrs. Elizabeth Izatt's 1952 extraction records. John the youngers will was dated in 1789. This was a new will with reference to an older one. We think Frances and Catherine were dead at the time as he left all of his belongings to his neices, nephews, and sister Mary. John was a Yoeman and executer of his father's will and heir to his father's estate. Note: Frances Ellenden was not mentioned in John the Elder's will but John the younger and his daugher Catherine were, we beleive she was dead at this time as John the Elder mentioned his other daughter-in-laws by name in his will.
