Note on Husband: Thomas TILLER - shared note

2 Thomas Tiller wrote a will in 1794 for which probate was granted in 1795 with the estate valued at under £600. A transcript of the will can be seen at www.familychest.co.uk/History/Data/WillTT_01.htm.

 

In it he mentions his sons John and Thomas and his daughter Elizabeth the wife of Richard Lee. It seems that Thomas is already dead as there is no specific bequest to him. There is specific provision for his grandson William, the son of Thomas. There is no mention at all of the family of his second wife Sarah Miles.

 

His main element of his estate appears to be his freehold Blacksmiths shop with outbuildings, gardens and parcel of land at Hoyle in the parish of Heyshott, then in the occupation of his son John and his son-in-law Richard Lee.
