518 Ralph Brake was born in Yetminster, Dorset and was apprenticed to the fishing trade in Newfoundland by a Charity when he was 13 Years Old. He settled in the Bay of Islands, married and had eight sons and two daughters (proof in his will) . All Bay of Islands Brakes descend from Ralph.



Briefly, here are the contents of Ralph Brake's will dated 1838. It was
proved at it's third attempt in 1866, previous years, 1844 and 1848, but by
that time only one son, William Matthews Brake survived. Apparently Edward,
the educated one, had intermeddled with his father's estate in England and it is unknown what happened to the money. It is all down on the administration
of 1866 in "black and white"

In the will Ralph left:- son, John Matthews Brake - £40, son, Joseph
Matthews Brake - £100, daughter Elizabeth Matthews Brake, wife of Thomas Park
- £20, daughter Jane Matthews Brake, wife of William Wheeler - £20, son,
Robert Matthews Brake - £100, remainder after payment of debts etc. to sons,
Robert Matthews Brake, Ralph Matthews Brake, William Matthews Brake, Thomas
Matthews Brake, and Edward Matthews Brake equally as long as these six
remained in partnership with each other, but if any of the sons came out of
the partnership before Ralph's death, then he was to be paid £100 in full
discharge of his share. If any of the brothers in partnership should died
before Ralph's death, then the business was to be divided amongst the
remaining brothers in that partnership.
William Blanchard of the Bay of Islands and Joseph Bird from England were the executors.

521 Regarding a Record of Marriage between William West and Caroline Daw, Greenspond, 1860.
There is a record of a marriage between Caroline Daw and William West in Greenspond in 1860 and it is assumed by many that it is this William. However, further research has proven that this marriage was of a different William West, Captain and Widower. Capt. William West and Caroline moved to England shortly after and had one child on the voyage to England and another, Margaret Lucy Jane West born 1866, the same year William died. In 1869, Caroline re-married to William Bragg and they had 2 more children.

523 remained a spinster Lovell, Olive (I2316)
 
524 Research note: I'm not sure who this is but given he was from Small Point and was born around the same time as my ancestor, John Thomas Kirby, he is likely a brother, cousin or other relative of John Thomas. He lived on Brazil's Square just as John Thomas had, however there were no other relations listed in the obituary so it could be that he wasn't related or was estranged. Mrs. Murphy, daughter, mentioned in the obit was listed as his step-daughter in his will. Kirby, James (I6536)
