Individual Details

Richard Scott was born about 1475, probably in Glemsford, Suffolk. His father William, who must have been very well to do, left him land in Glemsford, Boxted and Cavendish. Richard decided to settle in Boxted. The name of Richard's wife is unknown. She must have died before him for her name isn't mentioned in his will, dated May 30, 1559. Richard must have been a yeoman, or farmer. There is no record of his burial in Boxted or Glemsford, but from the date of the proof of his will, one can surmise that he died about April 1560 and, as requested in his will, was buried in the churchyard of All Saints Church in Boxted.
