Recently, I received a copy of my gggg grandfather's will, Samuel Green.

It was found in the Index to the Consistory Court of Ely Probate
Records 1449-1858, dated September 23, 1839 and proven by the Lord
Bishop of Ely on the June 16, 1840.

I was hoping by acquiring a copy of his will, it might state who his
father or his siblings were. However, it didn't mention his father or
siblings.

Therefore, I would like to know if anyone has any suggestions on where
to go from here to find out that information.

Would records of land mentioned in his will, give his father's name? If
so, a list of land mentioned is as followed:

- Dole in Creek in March aforesaid containing eight acres and two roods
of Land late Grounds Goodman

- New erected Messuages, or Tenements near the Bridge in March aforesaid
with the ground thereto belonging called part of the "Acre Estate" now
in the occupation of Burdell Phillips and Henry Richard Drew.

- Dole in Whitemoor in March aforesaid containing nine acres and two
roods Land late (Frushers??)

- And those my five acres and three roods in Creek late John Crowleys

- Lot or Dole in Whitemoor aforesaid containing Ten acres of Land late Barns's

- 27 acres of Freehold and Copyhold Land in Norwood in March aforesaid
which I purchased of Mess Edmund Barley and William Pratt the Trustees
for Sale under the will of Mary Barley deceased.

- All those my eight Cottages or Tenements in Whittle and Norwood side
and Outwell and in March

- 9 acres of Land in West Fenn called Impey's Piece

- Stock in Trade Cattle Corn Cropping Farming Utensils


Any help in finding my ggggg grandparents would be greatly appreciated.

I'll be looking forward to hearing from you!!

Thanks!!
