    Grazebrook's abstract:
    "The testator directs his body to be buried in the parish churchyard of St. Thomas in Dudley, and he gives to Anne his wife two kine, a heifer, a bolster, a pillow, and his best brass pot. "To the four children I had by her two weynling calves and two pieces of pewter. To my daughter Katherine Robynson my white-faced heifer, and the greate cheste that standeth in Gerry Smith's shop." To his two sons John and Edward Fooley, feather beds, &c. Residue to Richard Fooley, his son, whom he appoints sole executor. Richard Shawe, of Dudley, and John Fooley, testator's brother, to be overseers."

  3. That this baptism is for this Richard Foley is somewhat speculative. Arguing in favour of it: (1) Richard mentions in his will his brother John, and a John was also born to this family. (2) Richard's first marriage apparently took place in Rowley Regis, where this baptism occurred.
