Nimrod, Thanks so much for your reply. The articles by Jane Langston are by far the best information I have on the Hasfield Pauncefotes. I don't think I would have found them without your assistance. I have emailed Gloucester Archives regarding the early wills to see if they can send me your contributions. Did you provide them with transcriptions? There are four wills there I would like to see but the thought of having to transcribe more early wills, particularly in the 1500s is rather daunting. I was fascinated by your reference to the people who murdered John. Jane only mentions three people and I was surprised to find they seem to be people of property. What was the source of your information? Thanks again for your assistance which has been so helpful, Peter
