Item my body my soul departed to be buried in such place as shall seem good to them that shall see the doing therewith. Item I will that there shall be given at my burial unto the poor 3 shillings and 4 pence
      Item I give and bequeath unto Dorothie my Daughter thirty pounds of lawful money of England to be paid to her when she shall come to the age of eighteen years or day of marriage which shall first happen, and one chest to be paid to her by mine executor. Item I give and bequeath unto Susanne my daughter thirty pounds of lawful money of England to be paid to the said Susanne when she shall come to the age of eighteen years or day of marriage which shall first happen, and one chest to be paid to her by mine executor. And if either of them die before they come to age the one to be the others heir.

      First I will that Susanne my wife shall have the issues and profit of all my lands and tenements for the term of five years keeping the reparations and paying the Lords rent to bring up my children withal.

      And my will is that when five years are ended or after the decease of my wife which shall first happen that Thomas my son shall have the house which I now dwell in with the south end of the barn and with the ?hepp and close adjoining unto it and one orchard lying to the house with one piece of land containing one acre and one yard lying to the orchard and one meadow by estimation 2 acres adjoining unto Cuckoo?

      And also my will is that when five years are ended or after the decease of my wife which shall first happen that Hugh my son shall have my house which Harrison doth now dwell in with the stable and the stall and also the north end of the barn from the end of the house to the orchard and one close and the like house joining to the orchard and one Hemplott and one orchard and one field by estimation 2 acres & a half and also 2 piece of of land more called Broome lands by estimation 4 acres and also one piece of land more called Edrich by estimation 6 acres paying unto his mother 40 shillings by the year quarterly by even portions to be paid that is to say, at the feast of St Michael the Archangel else nativity of our saviour Christ and the Annunciation of the virgin Mary and the nativity of St John the Baptist beginning at the feast which shall first happen.

      And when five years are ended or after the decease of my wife which shall first happen I will that Robert my son shall have my house with a piece of land called Hamorth? and one piece of land called Wallingams? by estimation 3 acres and 3 yards of meadow lying in Barnes Meade & one piece of land called little barn land by estimation one acre & one yard and other 2 pieces of land lying in Westwell called Charewells by estimation 6 acres paying unto his mother 20 shillings by the year quarterly to be paid.

      Probate: 21st June 1610 - Susanne Tilbie Executor
      The reference in George Tilbie's Will to the fact that Thomas is to make payments to "his mother" "Susanne" would indicate that Susanne was in fact the original wife of George and the natural mother of Thomas.
