Jane Hadlow

Last Edited: 18 Dec 2015
  • Marriage*: Jane Hadlow married John Waite, son of Edward Waite and Elizabeth (?), on 10 May 1710 at East Malling, Kent, EnglandB.1
  • Married Name: As of 10 May 1710, her married name was Waite.
  • Anecdote*: John Waite's probate was investigated by Gillian Rickard who found that administration of his estate was granted to his wife Jane, with a probate inventory dated 14 February 1732 and presented to the court on 22 March 1733. It survives amongst the records of the Archdeaconry Court of Rochester (Kent History Centre: Dra/Pi 16/8). The value of his estate came to £505 6s 6d, a large sum for the time (being the eldest surviving son of an eldest surviving son probably helped!). A detailed inventory of his estate apparently survives, but has not been sighted although it is mentioned in Chalklin's 1962 paper "The Rural Economy of a Kentish Wealden Parish 1650-1750".2
