Just a note that Humphrey's will mentions the three sons "tthat are gone from me." Could that mean they had moved away, rather than that they had died?

*Potential parents* could be George Felts (1609–1692) and Elizabeth Wilkinson (1609–1694). Two different Ancestry trees have them listed as Humphrey's parents - but I am not experienced/knowledgeable enough to be able to confirm this myself.
