Will of Robert Ingalls
From the "probate court attached to the Lincoln Cathedral" in Lincolnshire, the will of Robert Ingalls of Skirbeck:
"In ye name of God, Amen. I, Robert Ingolls of Skirbeck, quarter of Skirbeck, in the County of Lincoln, yeoman, being sick of body but of good and perfect memorie, &c., &c. I give and bequeathe unto Elizabeth my wife during her natural life, &c. After her decease to Edmund my eldest sonne who was lawfully begotten. And for want of issue after Edmund's death to Robert, my second sonne, & for want of issue after his death to ffrancis my youngest sonne & failing issue to the natural heirs of me Robert Ingolls for ever. I give Robert Ingolls £20, and I give Francis Ingolls £30, both one year after my decease. I give my maid servant Anne Cleasbie £5, and to all of Henry Cleasbie's children one ewe lamb. To every one of Cousin Henry's children one ewe lamb. I give to my brother Henry a black fleeced cowe. I give to the poor of Skirbeck 10 shillings. I give one half of the balance to Elizabeth my wife during her natural life & then all to Edmund to whom I leave one half at once."
Wife Elizabeth & sonne Edmund are appointed Executors. Wm. Shinfold & Robt. Harrison are appointed Supervisors of the Will and he gives them 2s. 6d. each for their pains. The will is dated 12th of July 1617, and is signed Robert Ingolls his mark. The above is only partially an exact copy, avoiding needless repetition and such matter that was of little interest.S1
