The John here below that took over is the one that witnessed the marriage license for Thomas Woodroffe who married Jemima Wade who we all know had a son outside wedlock and his name was Thomas.
Hello,
Its just that I have this will, and it was whilst researching the name I came onto this site, sad its of no help.
However I wish I could locate the windmill in Bury that the will states was left to his son John?

I have been told that this mill is the one on the 1791 map with the name Woodrouffe on it (just by Heath Lane). His son John took over the lease in 1776, I believe. If this is correct, then the remains of the mill are in my garden.
