Now that's odd. When I looked at the burial records, the 1755 burial is for Martha, not Maurice. I cannot find a burial around 1772 for Maurice Boxall.

There were two baptisms for Maurice Boxall, 1726 the son of Morris and Mary and 1724 the son of John and Mary. One of them died in 1811, "an old Bachelor", 87years.

I think I will get the will if I can - it has to be for one of the three, and most likely the oldest one, whenever he died !
