• Notes

  Henry's second marriage is conjecture from the will believed to be this Henry's. There is a possibility that the will below belongs to his nephew, Harry, son of brother John, instead. I have checked all the marriage, will and burial records/indexes sent to me by Lauren Vargo, and have found no second mention of a Harry or second Henry Short. Therefore, our clearest belief is that the following will belongs to this Henry. If so, he only bequeathed items to the likely children of his second marriage. The sons of his first marriage would have been old enough to be off on their own and probably provided for already. Henry Sr.'s will is as follows: In the name of God Amen, the Sixteenth day of December Anno (Dui) 1675 I Henry Short sy ( ) of Walborton in the County of Sussex Vistua(l ) being Sick in body butt of perfect memory praised be to God do ordain & make this my last will & testament in manner & form following first I bequath my Soul to almighty God my Creator believing and hopeing to be (saved) by the (merrilly) & (mercy) of my Redeemer Christ Jesus And as for my (comporat?) Effects I Dispose of as followeth I will to my ( ) Son Adam Short Shall pay unto his Brother John Short five pounds, when he shall come to ye age of one twenty years out of that money (where owith) ( ) for Rent of my Copy ( ) which he as(uth) ... John I give likewise to Jane Short his Sister the like sum of Five pounds to be paid to her at the age above said ( ) I give to John Short & Joanne Short five pounds (apeice) to be paid to them out of my Goods w/I leave to my ( ) here after named after her decease Itm I give to my Son Adam Short two Shillings & (Six p.) One All ye rest of my goods and my Shalltlell; I give & bequeath to my loving wife Joane Short whom I make my whole Sole Exexutrix fo this my last will & testamt. In witnesse whereof I have hereunto sett my hand & Seal the Day & year above written /Henry Short/ Signed Sealed & delivered to be ( ) last Will and ..... (C-1589)
