FAMILY GROUP RECORD OF

JOHN  AND MARGARET  HYTCHEMAN



John Hytcheman was born in the late 1400s, in about 1490, of Cropredy. He married Margaret. John and Margaret both died within a week of each other. John was buried 7 February 1546/7 in Cropredy. Margaret was buried one week later on 14 February 1546/7 in Cropredy. Parts of Margaret's will are mentioned in The Town of Cropredy, 1570-1640, Pamela Keegan, as shown below:

 

1546/7 Margaret Hitchman's will. [MS Wills Oxon 179.247] The Inventory total was only £3-12s-4d

To Margaret, daughter "my best gowne my best cappe a derhesse and a kyrtle cloth."
To Julyann my soones wiff "a kyrtle"
To Elizabeth Tymme "a russet kyrtle and a cappe"
To Elizabeth Hitchman "my best petycote"


The mention of her daughter-in-law, Julyann (or Gylyan), establishes Margaret as James Hytcheman's mother. This also names a sister, Margaret, for James. The Cropredy burial register shows John Hytcheman's burial, then the burial of  "Margaret, wife John". This establishes John as James' father.


John and Margaret had the following children:


1. James, born in about 1520 of Cropredy, married Gylyan.


2. Margaret, born in about 1525 of Cropredy.
