I'm working on the will of Thomas Page of Fletching , Sussex from 1615, his son John is his executor, there are bequests to his daughters and he appoints "my father hilles" as well as a neighbour to be overseers of his will and to receive a sum for the bringing up of his youngest daughter Judeth (aged 10 when she was orphaned).
I'm wondering what the relationship of Thomas and "my father hilles" could be. I had thought father in law but I cannot find a marriage for Thomas, his wife died two years earlier and is buried as the "wife of Thomas Page". There are two Hills/Page marriages in the next parish of Newick. Any thoughts welcome.
