Henry Freeman
| Charts | Ancestors of Jennie Luene Logan |
Henry Freeman, whose ancestry is unknown (or not traced here), was born between 1505 and 1508.1 He died before 29 April 1585, when his will was proved.1
Henry married Joan Rudd, daughter of Thomas Rudd and Alice Pemberton, between 1530 and 1533.1
In her listing of the children, Holman shows two additional sons, John and Edward, and fails to list two daughters, Elizabeth and Mary, given in Henry's will. There is also an unnamed daughter who married John Barnes, given as son-in-law and overseer in the will. I tend to think that daughter was Mary and she was deceased by 1580.2
Henry left a will dated 6 August 1580, and proved 29 April 1585 by Thomas Freman, son, p.r. to Blase Freman:
