Notes
a. Note:   According to "Swet, Swete, Swett Coat of Arms", in 1550, "In the Chancery Proceedings and those of the Star Chamber, Johane Scoos, as widow of John Scoos of Upton in South Milton, who died without issue, says she has divers Deeds concerning tenements called Brownston, bronswell, Treyne, and six messuages in ye borough of Modbury now claimed by John Swete, as Plaintiff against her, because of his descent from william Scoos and Isett his wife, who died about 1541. This was proved, with Agnes, widow of John Scoos of Trewen (aged 70), as witness that their daughter Johane was married to John Swete of Upton in S. Milton, from whom the complanant, John Swete, was descended, and who now recovered Traine, Brownston, and Brownswell, as heir of John Scoos of Mylton who died about 1520." (Hooppell, Old Traine in Modbury, 1927) It is assumed on this website that William Scoos was the brother (not the son) of John Scoos Jr.
