The eldest son Robert, tried to obtain th ese estates; but, the result.... 'Claim allowed with arrear s fron the fathers death on fuller proff of the death and o n the sons taking the Oath of Adjuration'' Robert does no t appear to have done this and it is believed he and his br other, Lawrence , sailed to America. The other two sons, J ohn and Thomas, are believed to have jolned their relative s in Staffordshire.'
