9. | vi. | [not known son] IVORY |
This son was born ca 1513[1] and was a Husbandman from Hexton, Hertfordshire, England (a parish
abutting Offley)[1].
His existence is known only from a suit he brought against his godfather's executors in the Court of Requests ca. 1536. Basically, they stole his inheritance and treated him poorly. Of course, he was not protected by his uncle John or brother Robert, either. To whit: "Complaint made by ____ [mutilated] Ivery of Hexton in co. Hertford, husbandman, that his father Robert Ivery made his will 30 August 1525, making his brother John Ivery and his eldest son Robert Ivery executors, and leaving to his son, this complainant, then twelve years of age or under, for his preferment and toward his living, two hundred sheep and twenty quarters of barley, valued at £30. After the death of the complainant's said father the executors proved the will and administered the estate. Complainant was under the rule and governance of one William Welche of Luton, co. Bedford, his godfather, at whose request the executors paid over to him the said sheep and barley, to the intent that he should employ the same to the most profit of the complainant, he agreeing to render the said sheep and barley, with the increase thereof, on demand. About two years since the complainant demanded of the said Welch said sheep and barley with the increase thereof, but he not only refused to surrender the same but sold them and retained the mone. At St. John's day last past the said Welche made his will, appointing his wife Isabell and Thomas Steven of Luton his executors, and died leaving a good estate. Complainant has demanded his sheep and barley of these executors, but they refuse to satisfy his claim. Complainant is a poor man, and has no redress at the common law. He asks for letters of privy seal to be directed to the said executors, commanding them under penalty to appear and answer his complaint. [Undated, but probably about 1536] (Public Record Office, Court of Requests, Bundle 11, No. 180.)[5] |
