A copy of his will is in a tree on ancestry naming sons John and Thomas, daughters Mary, wife of William Ashem alias Jenshen and Susan, wife of Thomas Mate.


This is an interesting site to play around with but gives nothing further on Peter's parentage.

So you don't have any factual reason to think that there is any connection between your relation in Kent and the other family in Middx?

Have you proved conclusively that your line is directly linked to Peter?

this is from a family tree on my heritage but no supporting documents

Assuming you have linked the correct generations, "work" would be the most likely answer - but impossible to know for sure.

What proof do you have that Peter was the son of Jonis and Joan? Jonis would only have been 15 - though not impossible.

Hello all
just wondered on your thoughts until recently i had traced one of my ancestors Peter Woodham to Speledhurst Kent 1560 i now have 2 generations back to Jonis Woddham 1545 and Joan at Enfield Middlesex any idea why they would move to Kent as it seems a long way in those days
