Personal Information    |    PDF

  • Name Richard SLADDEN 
    Relationshipwith Teresa Ann GOATHAM
    Born Est 1522 
    • Match between names of siblings in Richard's will and those of children in Thomas's will (1544) show that Thomas was the father of this Richard.
      His father's will states Richard was to recieve his inheritance at 20 years of age, suggesting he was born no earlier than 1522; the instruction though was for 3 sons and it is not clear if they were all under 20. Richard was not named in his grandfather's will, written 1516, suggesting he was born after than was written.
    Gender Male 
    Died 1556 
    • Between writing his will and it being proved
    Will 24 Jul 1556 
    Buried 28 Jul 1556  Ss. Mary and Ethelburga’s Church, Lyminge, Kent, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • Assuming the wish he expressed in his will was fulfilled (to be buried in the churchyard)
      No burial of a Richard in 1556 in the KFHS transcripts, but there was an entry for Richard for 28 Jul 1555. It seems probable that this is this Richard with the year wrong. Wills were most often written only a short time before death, and the 4 days between the will and burial would be very common.
      The error could be in the transcribing by the KFHS or being in 1555 - 6 the entry was probably transcribed in the late C16th when the requirement to keep the entries in parchment books was brought in, and an error could have been made then.
      The transcribed data records 'Richard Sloden junior'. This suggests an older Richard was still living - maybe his uncle, or he could have had a cousin with the name.

    Family Constance,   b. Est 1520,   d. Aft 1556  (Age ~ 37 years) 
    Married Est 1545 
    • Based on rough estimate of dob of Richard's only known child.
      Constance was Richard's wife when he died, not necessarily the mother of his son, though given that his son was probably quite young she most likely was.
