    • Notes 
      • Executor of the will of her grandfather Samuel Norton.

        SAMUEL NORTON, of Lyge, 2 Somerset, Esq. Will dated Jan. 1, ^ 1615, proved Feb. 8, 1620, by the Exors. [16 Da/e.] To my daughter Elizabeth Seaman, £$ for a piece of plate. My daughter Joan Courte, ^"io yearly. My son Samuel Norton. To Hugh Norton, his son, £5 for a piece of plate. Residue to my son George Norton & his daughter Grace, they to be Exors. Mr Thomas Morgan & Samuel Davies, preacher of God's Word, Overseers.

        Charles Rogers, married Miss Elizabeth Seaman (of Court-House) in Painswick Church (July 30, 1629). Her father, Dr Seaman, had been buried in the Chancel six years before, on June 30, 1623; and her mother, Elizabeth (Norton) in August, 1625; while her eldest brother had married Anne in 1626. Seaman's Will (Cf. P.C.C., Oct. 7, 1622) had provided for the event rather quaintly : " If it happen my sonne Samuell to marry, that then hee and his wife shall have their habitation in my newe dwelling Mansion-House in Payneswicke, payinge reeson- ablie for their diet for themselves and their company." Samuel, however, enjoyed but a brief married life. He died there in 1632, leaving a son by his wife, who presently married Mr John Trye of Hardwicke, who came to reside with her at Painswick. 1
