    Notes:

    CONDITION: Died without issue. (Evans, British Genealogist, book 4 p. D138)


  2. 9.  William Aubrey (alias William Gough) Descendancy chart to this point (3.William2, 1.Charles1) was born in of, Ynysgedwyn, Ystradgynlais, Breconshire, Wales; died on 2 Jul 1760 in Quebec, Canada.

    Notes:

    Although William Gough senior did not die until 1773, a Deed of Limitation for the Gloucestershire lands of the Gough family dated 1758 transferred those lands to William junior for life, thereafter to be held in a trust for his sons, and then for them to inherit the lands.

    SURNAME: He took the surname of Awbrey. (Bradney, History of Monmouthshire, vol. 4 pt. 1 p. 126)

    DISTINCTION: Esquire. (Bradney, History of Monmouthshire, vol. 4 pt. 1 p. 126)

    RESIDENCE: Ynys-Cedwyn. (Bradney, History of Monmouthshire, vol. 4 pt. 1 p. 126)

    Died:
    He died on board the Penzance at Quebec on 2nd July 1760. This information might not have been relayed to his family until January 1761, as Ynyscedwyn estate paper D/D Yc 1213/1 is certification from the Navy Office of his death, dated 30th January 1761, by an R. Horne.

    William married Christiana Fleming in 1751. Christiana was born before 1751; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  3. 10.  John Gough Descendancy chart to this point (3.William2, 1.Charles1) was born in of, Wilsbury, St. Briavels, Gloucestershire, England; and died.

  4. 11.  Jane Gough Descendancy chart to this point (3.William2, 1.Charles1) was born in of, Wilsbury, St. Briavels, Gloucestershire, England; and died.

  5. 12.  Richard Gough Descendancy chart to this point (3.William2, 1.Charles1) was born in of, Wilsbury, St. Briavels, Gloucestershire, England; was christened on 27 Nov 1718 in Hewelsfield, Gloucestershire, England; died in 1759.

    Notes:

    Richard had to take the additional surname Aubrey as a condition of inheritance of the Ynyscedwyn estate upon the death of the last remaining male Portrey, Christopher Portrey (junior) in December 1752. His next brother, James, also took the additional surname of Aubrey at some point, perhaps upon the death of Richard in 1759. Whether William officially added the Aubrey name I am uncertain, but it may have been adopted after the death of Richard as William was the only one of the brothers with any children and it might have been assumed they would eventually inherit Ynyscedwyn.
