[jbnorris73]

Looking for any info on John Walker(1524-1562 in Exeter, Devon) and Grace Tothill(1527- Exeter, Devon) and their children, or a lead on any other sites to try. They are ancestors of my father in law and I am trying to build an ancestry tree for him. Any info would be wonderful. Thank You

I don't know if he his related, but here is a William Tothyll of Exeter in 1527:

Common Pleas, Trinity term 1527
http://aalt.law.uh.edu/AALT3/H8/CP40no1055/bCP40no1055dorses/IMG_0084.htm

Devon. William Tothyll, of Exeter, fishmonger, summoned to answer the Dean and Chapter of Exeter Cathedral concerning a debt of 100 pounds.

And again in 1546:

Richard Izacke, in his "Remarkable Antiquities of the City of Exeter", published 1723 -

"Mayors and Bailiffs
William Tothill 1552
This Mayor had successively two Wives, and had issue by them six and thirty Children"

[Vance Mead]

There's a will of James Walker of Exeter, goldsmith (PCC 1563)

Children Thomas, John, Joyce (Joyes)
Wife Grace to be executrix   
Overseers: brother in law Geoffrey Tothill, John Hooker, Richard Heliarde, William Lante or Laute(?)

In his will James Walker (PCC, 1563, on Ancestry) mentions three children:

Item I give to every of my children Thomas, Jhon and Joyes...

[hanes teulu]

Izacke mentions William Tothill as Bailiff in 1529 and Sheriff in 1549

[Vance Mead]

There's a bio of James Walker in "Exeter Goldsmiths' Guild", pages 441-442.

Thank You all for your information!! I am sooo happy that I have finally linked our tree to James Walker the Goldsmith in Exeter!! You don't know how happy this makes me. Thank you all for your responses and I'm so sorry that I did not acknowledge you all right away. We lost our house in a fire and I could not respond until now. Many thanks to all of you!!
