GOODEN - Speen

[newburychap]

The wine & spirit merchants is my main interest - I think that this is the business (stock in trade is mentioned) that Sarah Gooden leaves to her daughter Sarah in 1809, with son-in-law EE Gale as co-executor.  I am not sure how he gets to take over, but his will includes provision of an annuity to sister-in-law Sarah Gooden - which I am guessing was fulfillment of a deal whereby he took over the business in return for an annual payment to Sarah.

What I do not yet understand is how the business went from Henry Gooden's widow, Sarah, to Richard Gooden's widow, Sarah.  Did Henry's granddaughter Sarah take over from her mother?  Which Mrs Gooden moved the business a few doors down the street in 1787 (my bet is that this was Henry's widow - but I don't have her death)? Have you any idea what happened to Henry's daughter Sarah? Or his other child, Hannah Hill?
