Name: William Merryweather
Born: abt. 1481 Shepherdswell, Kent, England

he left a legacy to the Church. then the new church of King Henry VIII
at this time would have no quarrel with a legacy for what seems to us a
very small amount. He left four pence for a Light for Our Lady in his
Will dated 1519.
