THERE IS FURTHER RESEARCH TO DO - The marriage of Robert Brownsell to Cicily has not yet been found. It is possible she was Cislie Heighoe baptised in 1620 at Necton. Her father being an Andrew Heighoe. In the 1647 will of Andrew Heighoe, Cicely, his daughter is mentioned and still unmarried. There are some other wills to be read for Heighoe, Hayhoe (other spellings) in and around the Ashill area that may be of help.
