Research notes from William Good
I also found the wills of Joan Bennett (1696) and
Mary Gardiner (1697) the sisters mentioned in Richard Gardiner
Jr's will of 1693. The Maryland Calendar of Wills,
Volume II Page 67, has them living at "William Scott's,
Oxfordshire." They were actually living in the village of
Williamscote. The wills were proved at Oxford.
Joan left bequests (inter alia) to her kinsman
Thomas Eden of Wardington, Mary wife of Thomas Gardner, her cousin
Susanna Gill, wife of Mr Gill of Hanwell[?], cousin John Gill, junior, and sister Mary Gardner.
Mary left bequests to cousin Elizabeth, wife of
Thomas Eden of Wardenton, Mr John Gill the elder, Mr John Gill the
younger & Mary wife of Thomas Gardner of Willscot[?].
{WILLIAMSCOTE, or Wilscott, a hamlet in Cropredy parish, Oxford; 3¼ miles N NE of Banbury]
