[Bill Zoucha.ged]

Note: Lineage.
Perhaps born abt 1508; Robert Peck was from the branch of the family that lived in Halesworth and South Elmham, both in Suffolk county.  He was born in the vicinity of Beccles, moving into the town in 1525.  In 1529 he was made executor of his grandfather, John Leeke's will, making him at least twenty one at that time, so he was probably born as early as 1500; was a church warden of Beccles at one time; his will, written 30 Oct 1556 and proved 20 Nov 1556 in the Archdeaconry Court of Suffolk, left considerable bequests to sons John, Thomas and Robert, and to daughters Margaret, Olyve and Anne, and daughter Johan Meriman, and requested he be buried in the Beccles Churchyard next to his wife Johan's grave.

Beccles is an important parish in the northeastern part of Suffolk, 41 miles northeast from Ipswich.  It is situated onthe River Waveney, which winds in a north easterly direction towards the North Sea and separates the counties of Norfolk and Suffolk.  The parish church, dedicated to St. Michael, stands on a point of land overlooking the meadows through which the Waveney flows.  The church was built about 1369 and it's tower completed about 1515.
