• Notes

  _P_CCINFO 1-1319 [PIPESexKOR.FTW] Census 1841 MAry Amass age 25 ; dressmaker.in Home Cottage with sister Elizabeth aged 20 In the Debenham Parish Register seen by Katherine in 2002 states: Amas, John Palmer, bastard son of Mary Amas bap. 6/2/1802 She went on to have two more children, one of whom was again illegitimate. She married Benjamin Smith a widower and had a son Amass Smith. I had from another of my contacts who is descended from William (Samuel's brother). In one of her letters she mentions receiving correspondence from one of her contacts who mentioned hearsay that a Mary Amass in the 1800s was the mistress of a local landowner and when he died he left Mary a house in Debenham. I wondered if this could be possibly the mysterious Palmer. I do have a note from a transcript of Debenham Burials of a John Palmer of Debenham dying 16 July 1851 aged 80 which would make his birth around 1771. This would make him very near to Mary's age. I might try looking to see if there is any record of his will. - email from Wendy Miller EXTRACT FROM WILL SEEN AT IPSWICH PRO WILLIAM AMASS OF DEBENHAM - BUTCHER DATE: 6.9.1804 I give and bequeath unto JOHN PALMER AMASS natural son of MARY my daughter, the sum of five pounds to be paid to the said Mary his mother within six months after such sale.
