- RESEARCH_NOTES:
1. "The New York Genealogical and Biographical Record," 86(1955):132-148, 209-221, "The Feake Family of Norfolk, London, and Colonial America," by George E. McCracken:
"34. John Feake, second eldest of the minor children in 1595, was actually the fifth child and fourth son of William Feake (no. 13) by wife Mary Wetherall. In the 1623 pedigree he is called aurifaber but no apprentice papers have been found and in his father's will he is to be apprenticed to a merchant. However, the Cambridge papers of his son Samuel state that the father was John Feake of London, goldsmith, and of Elstree, co. Hertford, and those of his nephew Christopher, son of brother Edward (no. 35), show that Edward was of Godstone, Surrey, probably living on the property bequeathed by his mother to John. Elstree, also called Idlestrey, is in southern Hertfordshire on the borders of Middlesex and not far from Bushey where John's putative daughter Elizabeth resided at her death. It may be this John who is listed by Sir Ambrose Heal as a goldsmith in London 1640-41. The 1623 pedigree names his wife as Judith Tourner, a marriage which must have been contracted before 1619 when two of his children are named in his mother's will and others, perhaps, indicated. Children: 4 (or more):
52. i. Samuel, b. before 1619.
53. ii. Judith, b. before 1619; probably married George Andrewes and had daughters Judith and Elizabeth, minors in 1648, heiresses of their aunt Elizabeth.
54. iii. Elizabeth, of Buchy [Bushey], co. Hertford, will dated Oct. 20, 1648, probated Nov. 3, 1648 (PCC: 170 Essex): Judith Andrewes, daughter of George Andrewes, to be heir and residuary legatee, also sole executrix, with Robert Ibbitt of Cambridge and George Andrewes as trustees and overseers during Judith's minority; to Sarah Ibbitt, daughter of Robert, 20s; if Judith Andrewes dies in her minority, then to her sister Elizabeth Andrewes; witnesses: Richard Ward, Thos. Coleman (by mark), Mary Seaton.
55. iv. (poss.) Daughter, m. Robert Ibbitt of Cambridge and had Sarah, living 1648."
