55. William Middlemore, of Hawkesley, gentleman, to which he succeeded- in 1681, on the death of his eldest brother, John (54), intestate and childless.
In 1681, he borrowed £300 from one John Doxley, and this led to litigation in 1709, when he stated--that it had been repaid. From a reference to his, brother John's- widow Anne, it seems probable that it was made- in connection with some family arrangements.
Entered, as born, 7 February, 1656-7, in King's Norton register, and was buried there as "of Alkeley," 1 March, 17 11-2. Administration granted to his brother George Middlemore (56), 3 April, 1712
He married at King's Norton, 19 February, 1689, his maternal first cousin, Elizabeth, daughter of Robert Middlemore (22), of Haselwell, and widow of Walter Grey, but left no issue, and was succeeded by his brother, George, Middlemore (56). She was buried at King's Norton, 5 February, 1711-2.
We now come to William Middlemore's (53) youngest son George.
