Note: ; died ------, 1760; married Dec. 28 1757, Catherine Ash, born --------; died before 1783; daughter of Gilbert Ash and his wife Mary ------. Catherine (Ash) Leggett married 2nd, Jan. 30, 1764, James Tomlinson.
By her second husband, James Tomlinson, Catherine (Ash) Leggett had three children (not in Leggett line); James, Anne and Gilbert Tomlinson.
Gabriel3 Leggett died intestate, and his wife Catherine was appointed administrator, April 10, 1760. We have no other records of him or of his son, Gabriel4, except the mention of Gabriel4 in the will of his grandfather, Gilbert Ash.
The will of Gilbert Ash, dated Feb. 10, 1783, proved Jan. 8, 1785, names his wife, Mary, children of deceased daughter, Catherine Tomlinson, namely Gabriel Leggett, son of her first husband, Gabriel Leggett, deceased, and James, Anne and Gilbert Tomlinson, by her second husband, James Tomlinson, "when they come of age." This will shows that Catherine (Leggett) Tomlinson was dead before this date, and that if she had had other children by Gabriel Leggett, this son Gabriel was the only one living at this date.
