     Susan Gooderich was baptized on 30 May 1591 at Hessett, Suffolk County, England.3 She was the daughter of William Gooderich and Margaret Richardson.1,2 As of 1618,her married name was Lock.3 She married first John Lock in 1618 at Lawshall, Suffolk County, England.4,5 She married second John Beamond in 1628 at Bradfield Combust, Suffolk County, England.4,6 As of 1628,her married name was Beamond.7,8 She was named an heir in the will of William Gooderich dated 4 April 1631 at Hegessett, Suffolk County, England.9,6

     Research Note: The will of Susan's brother John leaves no doubt that Susan and her first husband John Lock or Lark had children. However, there is a discrepancy between the supposed transcriptions of John's will that was printed in the Case book and the Stevens Miller book, and which are both cited here.
     In the Case book the transcription reads that John left 40 shillings apiece to the "two younger children" of his sister Susan by her first husband. In the Stevens Miller Ancestry it says he left 40 shillings apiece to the "three youngest children" of Susan by her first husband.
     There is no way of knowing for sure which one of these printings is correct, or indeed if either of them are, but after reading them both, I am more inclined to beleive what is written in the Stevens book than I am the Case book. The reason is that the will printed in the Stevens book is more complete (i.e. has portions that were not printed in the Case book) and also the English has not been corrected in the Stevens book, while it has been in the Case book. Therefore, since I have not been able to examine the original will, I am inclined to give more weight to the printing in the Stevens book.10,5

     Transcription of the will of Rev. William Goodrich: "In the name of God, Amen. I William Goodrich of Hegessett, in the county of Suffolk, clerk, being through the mercy of God of sound mind, and good health and disposing memory, do make and ordain this my last will in manner and form following, Imprimis, I give unto Rebecca, my loving wife, all my messuages wherein I now dwell, in Hegessett aforesaid, with all the houses, out-houses, and gardens, lands, and appurtenances thereunto belonging, to hold to her assigns, for and during the term of her natural life, she keeping the same from time to time in good repair; and, after my said wife's decease, I give the same messuages, tenements, houses, out-houses, gardens, orchards, and appurtenances thereto belonging, unto Joseph, the eldest son now living of my brother John Goodrich, and his heirs forever. But in case he dies, and have no issue from his own body, I give the aforesaid houses and lands, with all their appurtenances before mentioned, or not mentioned, belonging to me in Hegessett, to my brother's next son, Jonathan, and his heirs; and if he also be dead before my wife, and have no natural issue of his body, I give the appurtenances named, or not named, belonging to me in Hegessett, unto my brother John's eldest daughter, and her heirs, that shall be then living. Also, I give unto Rebecca, my loving wife, all that Copyhold Close, called by the name of Robbetts, containing by estimation seven acres, more or les, lying in Chilton Hamlet, in Stowmarket, in the County of Suffolk, holden of the monor of Dagworth cum Sorrells to hold to her and her assigns for and during the term of her natural life, and after my said wife's decease, I give the aforesaid close, with all the appurtenances thereof, to John, the eldest son of my brother William Goodrich, and his heirs forever. Also, I give unto Rebecca, my wife, all the closes mortgaged to me by John Tillicot, of Bayton, now deceased, for fifty pounds, and seized upon by me for the lack of payment of the principal.

     All these closes, as they are mentioned in the indenture made to me, with their appurtenances, I give to the said Rebecca, my wife, during the term of her natural life; but in case the land be redeemed, and the fifty pounds paid, with the interest that is, or shall be, due to me, my will is that my wife shall have the interest and improvement thereof toward her maintainence during her life. But my will is, that after her decease, that ll the closes of the aforesaid John Tillicot, mortgaged to me, and seized upon by me for want of payment of the aforesaid principal, shall descend to John Goodrich, the eldest son of my brother William Goodrich, and his heirs. But if redeemed, I will and devise to the aforesaid John (Goodrich), and to his heirs, after my wife's decease fifty pounds, of lawful English money, in the room of the land; and whereas I have sundry sums of money abroad in several hands, I will and devise concerning the same that my said wife shall have the interest and improvement thereof toward her maintenance during her life. But my will is, that the aforesaid fifty pounds, in case paid, and the aforesaid land of John Tillicot be redeemed, and, besides that, an hundred and fifty pounds more I have abroad, to be well secured by my wife, within three months after my decease; the above-named fifty pounds for the use(......)forenamed John Goodrich, eldest son of my brother William (Goodrich), and his heirs (........) forever; out of the hundred and fifty pounds, after my wife's decease, I will and devise one fifty pounds to the above said John, eldest son of my brother William Goodrich, and his heirs forever; and as for the other hundred pounds, I will and devise the same unto Joseph, the eldest son of my brother John Godorich, and to his heirs forever; after the decease of my wife. And do farther will that whenever Mr. John Tillicot's land be redeemed, and the fifty pounds paid in, that the said fifty pounds shall be put out for the better improvement of my wife's maintainence; but no part or parcel of it, but by, and with, the consent of my kinsman, Henry Bull, senior, of Bury, Malster, and John Goodrich, eldest son now living of my cousin Robert Goodrich, Hawleigh, Chirurgeon, and after the same manner shall the hundred and fifty pounds before mentioned be disposed of for the maintainence of my said wife. No part of the same to be put out, or altered out of the present hands where it now is, but by, and with, the consent of Henry Bull of Bury and John Goodrich of Hawleigh, that so the principal sum may be preserved for the aforesaid John Goodrich, eldest son of my brother William Goodrich, and his heirs, and Joseph Goodrich, eldest son of my brother John Goodrich, and his heirs: and in case of her disposal of the said two hundred pounds, or any part thereof, without the consent of the aforesaid Henry Bull and John Goodrich, then i will that my said two brother's children, Joseph and John, or their heirs living, shall immediately from and after such disposal have and enjoy the two hundred pounds, according to my mind and purpose above said, either of them their appointed part and share. And it is further my will that my said wife do, before she enjoy any benefit of this my will, first enter into a bond of four hundred pounds to the said Henry Bull and John Goodrich, that her executors and administrators shall pay to the above-named Joseph and John, within three months after her decease, the two hundred pounds, in case the land of John Tillicot be redeemed and the principal paid; or else one hundred and fifty pounds if they shall come so soon out of New England to receive the same, or by sufficient or undoubted authority they send for the same, or else so soon as they shall send for it. Item. It is my will that all the overplus of my estate, either goods or money, or household stuff, or chattels whatsoever, shall be to and for the use and benefit of my wife, and at her disposal, to whom I give the same, and constitute and appoint the said Rebecca, my wife, sole executrix of this my last will and testament, and I nominate the said Henry Bull and John Goodrich supervisors thereof. Also, my mind and will is that John Bull, reader, of Bury, in the parish of St. James, and the son of Henry Bull, aforesaid, these books named by mine own hand in the margin of my will, which my executrix, after my death, shall deliver to him. In witness of all this, I, the said William Goodrich, have to this my last will and testament, contained in sheet of paper, set my hand and seal, dated the 12th day of May, in the year of our Lord, 1677"
