Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Brooke EASTWICK was born after 1641 in of Stoke, Warwick, Warwickshire, England (son of Christopher EASTWICKE and Eleanor WALDEN); and died.

Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Christopher EASTWICKE was born about 1601 in Northhamptonshire, England; was christened in Apr 1602 in Great Oakley, Northamptonshire, England (son of Christopher EASTWICK and Anne); died in 1656-1657 in Stoke, Warwickshire, England.

    Notes:

    His will is available in the Canterbury Wills on Ancestry. It is very difficult reading.

    He first mentions 3 Estwicks (Marie, Richard and Brooke) as his younger children who appear not yet to be of age. He gives them to the care of his brother Francis and it looks like monetary support to do that. He bequeaths items and care to his wife (Eleanor), his son Francis, his son Isaac, his son Isaace, Christopher, Adrian, daughter Ellinor... and I'm assuming the rest. He names his son-in-law, Robert Wells and his grandchild (via Robert without listing the child's sex or name). This means that Christopher and Eleanor had another unknown daughter who probably died previous to 1657. He names his wife Eleanor as his administrator.

    Christopher was "late of London" in a 1648 record. His father Christopher's will in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury, suggests that he could have been born anywhere in the Northhamptonshire area as that is the region where the persons he names in his will are from. His father Christopher, lived in Stoke, Coventry, Warwickshire, England when he wrote his will and owned lands in Bedford and Kent which he also bequeathed. These lands covered quite a distance in the southern half of England.

    The entry in Caribbeana is as follows:
    Christopher Estwicke of St.John's Parish Barbados. Will dated 17th January 1660/1. My wife Anne Estwicke. My children [''three visible''] Ellinor, Mary and Christopher, and a 4th not yet born. My brother Francis. To my uncle Richard E. my gold ring, formerly my father's, with our coat of arms on it. Proved 28 January 1660/1. Entered16 April 1662.

    In the tree appearing in Caribbeana it is stated that he "Purchased 50 acres in Barbados in 1641/2. It is assumed that this was Lightfoots in St.John's Parish, Barbados. We can also assume that Estwick died between 17 and 28 January 1660.

  1. 8.  Christopher ESTWICKE, Gentleman was born before 1565 in England (son of Unknown ESTWICKE); died about 1612 in Stoke, Coventry, Warwickshire, England.

    Notes:

    His will is very difficult to decipher quickly. He names wife Anne and son Christopher. Christopher is the first child named and is listed as his oldest son later in the document. He says he also bequeaths to other sons and daughters, meaning he has at least 2 more sons and at least 2 daughters. The next son I have found in the document is Frances Estwicke. He also mentions a daughter Mary. He bequeaths items or money to his maids and names them. I have not been able to find the names of all of his children in this will, however.
    He names a Christopher and Andryan Brooke of Northhampton in his will at the beginning, middle and end of it. This suggests that his wife might be Anne Brooke. This is likely the marriage record for Christopher Brooke: Elizabeth GOWLD

    He mentions his beloved brother in law Thomas Staboloy? of Langton (which is about 50 miles from Bedford, England, 30 miles from Northhampton and 1 mile from Stoke, (now co. Coventry), England.

    He mentions families of Bedford and Kent and lands in those areas. Bedford is 50 miles from Stoke and 22 miles from Northhampton. Kent is 135 miles from Stoke south of London and 111 miles from Northampton. There is another Stoke that is much closer to London. It is only 20 miles northeast of Kent but 103 miles from Bedford. I was wondering if someone got the county that Stoke was in for later generations incorrectly placed. This family does tend to end up in London down the road, suggesting that this is the case. However, for the persons he names in his will with their location they are all around the Northhampton area suggesting that he is located somewhere in that area.

    He mentions mortgages, tenements, land, and chattels amongst his wealth. He appears to give his lands in Bedford and Kent to his wife and son Christopher.
