The rest of my household goods as beading, peautar, brass, iron earthen and wooden vessels, within house, I give unto hir during hir natural life, and at hir death to returne to my children. Only I do desire, out of those to be now deposed of, to my children al my wearing colothes, and my chest, and al that is in it, and a great kettle, and a cowel. Also I give unto hir one third part of al the corne that shal be mine at my desease and I do will that my five sonns above mentioned, them and each of them thairheire Executor administed asigne., shal pay, or cause to be paide, to my wife Sarah Gage twenty shillings apeace every yeare during her natural life in good merchantable corne.

THERE IS MUCH CONTROVERSY OVER THE ANCESTRY OF THIS JOHN GAGE. SOME BELIEVE JOHN'S FATHER WAS JOHN GAGE OF EDWARDSTONE, SUFFOLK BORN ABOUR 1545. OTHERS BELIEVE THERE IS A GOOD CONNECTION TO SIR JOHN GAGE OF FIRLE, SUSSEX, ENGLAND. ARTHUR E. GAGE HAS MADE SOME STARTLING DISCOVERIES CLAIMING PROOF SUPPORTING THE CONNECTION TO SUFFOLK.

UNTIL I CAN BE CONVINCED I WILL CONTINUE TO CARRY JOHN'S FATHER AS SIR JOHN GAGE OF FIRLE, SUSSEX
