Aldred BYCCOMBE's birthdate is unknown, and it is thought he was born about 1560, based upon his marriage date. However, he may have been born almost twenty years earlier, and married late in life, because he is mentioned in a property lease dated in April 1562. Another possibility regarding this lease, is that his father may have died and the lease was newly made in the names of his children. Aldred was a resident of Old Cleeve in Somerset, and a clothier which was a trade that was continued by his son Aldred, and possibly for a short time by his son William. In April of 1562, Aldred Byckham held a lease (with Isott Byckham and William Byckham) for eleven acres in St. Decumans, Somerset, England, from John Trevelyan. This property was known as Hasley Meadow or Haselake, and had previously belonged to a John Englysshe. By 1581, Aldred was paying the Tudor Subsidies for his lands in the Hundred of Williton Fremanors, in Old Cleeve, Somerset. Aldred later paid Lay Subsidies in Old Cleeve, Somerset, in 1596. Aldred named his brother William, his wife Ellen, and his children in his will dated 21 July 1610. These were (in order of being named) Charity, Mary, Joane, William, Aldred, and Anne Lanham. Mary, Joan, and William were under the age of twenty-one at the time their father's will was written, and Anne was deceased. Aldred left a legacy to Anne's daughter Isott Lanham. One legacy that is of importance in following Aldred Byccombe's line is that of the silver salt and silver spoons. They appear in the wills of his sons and grandsons. According to the probate of his will, Aldred died before 2 February 1611, probably in Old Cleeve, Somerset, England. His name has also been recorded in various records as Aldred BICCOMBE, and Aldred BYCKHAM. Will of Aldred Byccombe dated 21 July 1610, proved 2 February 1611.
