John did surrender his land in Gambleside about 1625.
He directed that his trustees were to hold half for George unless hisbrother, Peter, should pay unto his brother George "as soon as heshall accomplish the full and lawful age of 21 years the sum of fourscore pounds of lawful English money at or within the chapel or chapelyard of Goodshaw". Then the whole estate should be surrendered to hisbrother, Peter.Buried in Burnley on 15 March 1627/28.

This will dived his land into two parts, rather than three, as he wasa widower.
The first part he left to be divided between his two sons, Peter andGeorge, and the second part he left to his second son, George, sincePeter inherited the land at Gambleside of yearly rent 35/-.The executors of George's will were John Ormerod of Foxstones, andPeter Ormerod of Ormerod.

There is confusion in Milton Ormerod's The Ormerods, between theJennet Whittaker who married John (6G1) of Gambleside, and the Jennet(presumed Whittaker) who married John (4H1) of Huncoat.
Both these couples are shown in his trees as marrying in Burnley on 28May 1571.
Buried in Burnley on 31 January 1606/07, having signed her will theday before.
Will proved in 1607.
In her will Ann mentions her unmarried daughter Mary and the childrenof another daughter (later named as Elizabeth, in her sister, Mary'swill), who had married another unidentified Robert Birtwistle.
of Huncoat
Will proved in 1611.
This will mentions the children of her brothers, John and William andthe names of her sisters, Anne wife of John Ashworth and Elizabethwife of Richard Birtwistle.
This will lists debts owing to Mary of almost £200 by 21 people (at atime when £3 would keep one person for a year).It is likely that after the death of her parents Mary lived with hersister, Elizabeth, wife of Richard Birtwistle at Huncoat.
of Cowpe
In his father's will Richard obtained land of yearly rent 10/- inCowpe, which his grandfather had initially bought.
Will proved in 1633.
The inventory of Richard's will was dated 29 November 1632.
He made his two brothers, George and Henry, the feoffees to this willand they both signed it in perfectly legible writing.
The Court Roll inquisition stated that his heir, George (6W2), wasabout 14.
The will arranged for the feoffees to manage the estate and the landwas not to pass to George, his heir, until £10 each had been paid toRichard's children, Margaret, Agnes, John and Elizabeth, onMidsummer's Day on successive years 1646, 7, 8 and 9.
There is reason to believe that their uncle, Henry Ormerod, went tolive in Cowpe during this period to manage the estate, for he isdescribed as 'of Cowpe' in the Court Rolls at this time.
Buried in January 1681/82.
Mentioned in the will of Robert Ashworth of Brex, her grandfather.
He left Elizabeth £3.
of Gambleside
Mentioned in a Court Roll of 1532.
Milton Ormerod in The Ormerods suggests that Peter may have ended upviolently disliking his lawful wife, Margaret - whom he may have onlymarried for her property.
She was certainly - from her frequent appearances in the Court Rollsfor the advancement of her own children - an energetic and, possibly,an abrasive character.
Peter's final disposition of his estate (with half going to hisbastard son) must have infuriated her.Milton Ormerod argues on pp.178-179 that this points to John (5J1)'smother being an Ormerod, and more than likely the daughter of Oliver(3L1).
A John Ormerod (5J1) was a bastard son of Peter (4G1) of Gambleside.
It is suggested by Milton Ormerod (The Ormerods, p69) that John'smother may have been one of Oliver's daughters, possibly namedElizabeth.
