As John Maltby in the Codicil to his will, 1647, directed "House in Briggate to be sold and # 100 (pounds) to son John at 21 and residue to my youngest son lately born". We obtain John's age from the following sale. (Fest of Fines. Trierity. 14 Charles II. 1662)

"Final agreement between John Darrell, gent; John Ward and Elizabeth, his wife, Richard Otter and Anne his wife, purchaseers:

     William Carr and Dorothy his wife,

        25 acres of land, 6 of meadow, 2 of pasture and common of pasture with
        appurtenances in East Retford, West Retford, Babworth in Co. Notts". 

     (Note. John Maltby in his Will, 1647, leaves "eldest son John house in
      Carr Lane".)  In "1561/2 and Edmund Carr married Ann Maltby at St.
      Peter's at Arches, Lincoln City." 
      Another Final Agreement, 1662, pertains to John Maltby in which he is
      selling with the heirs of his uncle, Richard Maltby, of Springthorpe.
      (Fest of Fines, 14-15 Charles II. 1662) "Final Agreement between Peter
       Booth, John Langfitt, purchaseers and 
       Sir George Savile, baronet, and Dorothy his wife,

       cottages, 2 gardens, 2 orchards, 1 acre of meadow, 1 of pasture and
       common of pasture with appurts in East Retford, Co. Notts". Note.
       Mary, wife of Robert Farmery, was daughter of Richard Maltby of 
       Springthorpe, Will 1638. Cecilia Cherbury, widow, was grand-daughter of 
       Richard, her mother be- ing Sarah Maltby who married William Parks in 
       1636. William Mason, gent., was husband of Richard's daughter Margaret,
