Margaret

- 1574

• Name	Margaret   [1]
  Born	England
  Gender	Female
  Anecdote	From Anderson: As Margaret Hunting, widow, she was buried at Palgrave on 8 October 1574, leaving a will that was dated the prior 8 July and was subsequently proved on 4 January 1574/75. Bequests of moveables were made to five legatees: William Hunting (called "my son"), a milk cow and a heifer, Mary Hunting ("my daughter"), a milk cow and a heifer; John Rixe ("my son-in-law"), two old kettles; John Holmes ("my son-in-law"), two old kettles; and Roger Hunting ("my son"), millstones and appurtenances. Other bequests went to godchildren and to the poor of Palgrave. As residuary legatees, she named William and Mary Hunting; as executors, John Rixe and John Holmes. The land for which Margaret was taxed in 1568 would have been held by her only as a life interest; it would then have passed to the eldest son. The bequests to William and Mary indicate that they were still unmarried when the will was drawn and probably were the youngest of the siblings. In conjunction with the marriage records for three of the children, this suggests that Margaret's will names her heirs in reverse order of age.
