Father The Rev. William SKIRRETT, b. Abt 1562, bur. 24 Nov 1611, St. Andrew’s Church, Whitchurch, Devon, England (Age ~ 49 years) Mother Margery, bur. 14 Dec 1633, St. Eustachius’ Church, Tavistock, Devon, England Married - In 1612, the year after William died, a widow Margery Skirret of Tavistock was involved in a case regarding a will (see Devon Wills Project).
The date suggests it was the will of William, especially as the later burial of a widow Margery cannot be matched with anyone else.
