Kind(eren):
The Visitations of Wiltshire in 1565 and 1623 recorded Joane Brounker as the daughter of Robert Brounker of Melksham, Wiltshire, and the wife of John Smyth of Corsham, Wiltshire. The date and place of the marriage are unknown, but was probably around 1518 and in Wiltshire.
Joan was not recorded in the will of her father, Robert Bruncker, the will made on 31 Jan 1535/1536 and proved on 17 Feb 1537/1538
In the will of her husband, John Smyth, Clothier of Corsham, the will made on 01 Apr 1538 and proved on 08 Nov 1538, he referred to eight score pounds that his father in law, Robert Brunker, had given him for their children. He willed that his wife 'Johane' was to be custodian of his plate until their eldest son John should be married, and at the time of his marriage one moytie should be delivered to John and the other moytie remain with Johane during her widowhood.
He willed that his wife should keep the profits of his Weavers Mill in the parish of Slaughterford (for nine years, should she remain a widow for that time) and the profits of all his other stock and goods during her widowhood. Johane was to pay Henry Brunker of Melksham, his brother in law, twenty pounds per year for nine years to pay the sum of nine score pounds given to him by Robert Brunker.
Johane was requested to bring up the children (who were named as: John, Thomas, Henry, Robert, Richard, Anne, Jane and Elizabeth) using the profits of his mill, stock etc. If she should remarry then she would receive one hundred pounds on the condition that she released all her rights to the estate of her husband to their eldest son, John. If his son, John, should not marry then all his legacies were to be divided between the other children according to the discretion of Henry Brunker. His executors were named as his wife, Johane, and his son, John Smyth.
Research Notes
A date of death of 7 Jun 1579 had been applied to this profile but there was no source. There is no evidence of a burial for Joan in Corsham, Wiltshire. Presuming that she was buried with her husband at Corsham, then she may have died prior to 1564 (the earliest surviving Burial Register for Corsham starts during 1563), unless of course she had remarried.
