Notes about George Barker

SUMMARY: On the information obtained from J.Lewis Taylor,[through research done by Price & Associates Research, 10 Nov 1997], George's father was listed as George the elder. It listed that George the elder also had another child, a female, name unknown born about 1612. In the notes for this female child it stated "unnamed dau in uncle John Barker's will." This would mean that George the elder had a brother John. Also see Price report 28 Dec 1994
In January 2002 Lewis Taylor provided the will for John Barker [brother to George, the elder]. Archdeaconry of Richmond, Lonsdale Deanery FHL# 0098825. John Barker Will dated 23 Jan 1609/10 of Killington, Kirkby Lonsdale, Westmorland. It lists the following: Wife Syball; Brother George Barker and his son and two daughters; Sister Dorothie Hilton; Sister Mable; Kinsman George Barker his two sons; Richard Hilton and Henry his brother (relationship probably to his sister Dorothy).
According to the above will for John Barker, It looks like: [1] Two George Barkers are listed, a brother and a Kinsman. [2] George Barker the elder had TWO unnamed daughters and one unnamed son. [3] Is my George Barker the son of George the brother or George the Kinsman, both had sons.
What is the proof that George born abt 1610 is the son of George Barker the elder, brother to John Barker? Is it that the land was passed on to him. Does a will exist for George Barker the elder??
Until such time as proof of father/son relationship, this file will not list a father for George Barker born abt 1610.
