  1. 1.  Christopher EASTWICK was born before 1582 in Milton Bryan, Bedfordshire, England; was christened in Apr 1602 in Great Oakley, Northamptonshire, England (son of Christopher ESTWICKE, Gentleman and Anne (BROOKE)); died in 1657 in Stoke, Warwickshire, England.

    Notes:

    The wills for the wealthy in that time period were sent to Canterbury for all of the south of England including Warwickshire and Northhamptonshire. He is in his father's will date 1611 of Stoke, Conventry, Warwickshire, England. His father owned lands in Bedfordshire and Kent, England as well.

  1. 2.  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.
