His will dated 8.3.1793 mentioned his dear and betrothed wife Miss Kitty Cook and a codicil of 1.6.1794 mentioned his child Eleanor. His handwriting was sworn to 13.4.1796 by Thomas Bond of Bath and George Cooke of King St, St James (His daughter Eleanor married Richard Kirwan in 1826 and died in 1862).
