Biography

Alice is referred to as Alice Tregonnel wife of William Southcote (second son called William) in the Visitation of Essex, 1634[1]

Alice is mentioned as 'Alice Southcotte widowe, my syster' in the will of her brother Sir John Tregonwell, written in 1563. Alice was left some silver so was presumably alive at this date. Her sons, referred to as 'my nephewes', Nicholas and John Southcotte , were residual heirs to Sir John's estate. 'John Southcotte of London my nephew, nowe one of the Justices of the pleas to be holden before the Queens Ma'tie ' was named as one of two men responsible for the care of the estate during the minority of Sir John Tregonwells heir. [2] She passed away in 1550.

Hi, as you can see added some more information which I was able to discover.

I'm afraid Sir John Tregonwells will is still on the to do list to transcribe completely so just added snippetts (its pages and pages and then has a detailed inventory) I haven't changed Alice's death date but suggest that it should be after 1563, however at this time her husband is dead. Helen
