Does the 1795 Will of James Pead provide any other family details to go on, besides citing his two nephews in London?
If you google "Guild of one name studies" there is a Derek Heritage you can contact through the site.
He is using the spelling Pead/Peed
Just click on his name and it brings up the email to contact him.
Roger Pede 1392
Its hardly worth posting this, especially as the part in the middle that may contain more names is obscured.
Text in square brackets is speculative.

In the name of God Amen. I William Pede of Ringland, being sane in mind and of good memory[?], on the third day of the month of January in the year of the Lord 1477[/78] make my testament in this manner. First I bequeath my soul to God the Father Almighty, the Blessed Mary and all the saints, and my body to be buried in the graveyard of the Church of St Peter of Ringland aforesaid. Item, I leave to the high altar, 4 pence. Item, I leave to the light before the crucifix over the [ ] in the said church, 4 pounds of wax. Item, I leave to Agnes Pede one [ ] and one salt-cellar. Item, I leave and assign to Alice my wife all my utensils and the necessaries of my house. Item, I leave to the aforesaid Alice my wife all my lands and tenements in which I live. And after the death of the aforesaid Alice, I will and assign that all the aforesaid lands and tenements be sold by my [executors], and the money thence arising should be distributed for pious purposes, for my soul and the souls of my [ ] for celebrating masses, other alms and for houses of charity, so that they should arrange for our souls as seems best, for pleasing God and for the advancement of our souls. And for carrying out this my last will, and doing it well and faithfully, I ordain and constitute Alice my wife, Robert Pede and John Att[ ]er to be my executors, so that they may [ ] and arrange all the aforesaid things [ ] just as will seem pleasing to God etc. Given on the abovesaid day, place and year.
Proved etc. before us, the Official Commissary of the Lord Bishop of Norwich, and approved and inserted on the [?]sixth day of the month of January 1477/78. Administration of all the goods etc. of the said deceased etc. [ ] of this will was granted to Alice, relict of the said deceased, the executrix named in the same will, who was sworn in form of law; power reserved of granting this administration etc. to the other executors named in the same will when they will [seek?] it in form of law. In witness of this matter etc.
I'll have a go at William later. I doubt I'll get much that is of use out of Roger.
