        Will of Abraham Devischer Esquire Battersea, Surrey 25 February 1709 Proved May 1710
        -mentions brother in law Thomas Richmond Webb, wife Grace, mother Mrs Petts, sons Abraham, Samuel and Edmund, daughters Grace, Cornelia and Mary. Land at Battersea.


        ...Before 1695 the freehold of the estate had passed to the Devisscher family. Mary, widow of Samuel Devisscher of Battersea, married Samuel Pett, also of Battersea and probably a member of the boat-building firm. (ref.10) ... In 1713 Mary Pett and Samuel Devisscher's heirs mortgaged to Thomas Jenkins eleven houses on the north side of St. James's Place and half the open ground before them, (ref.11) and in 1721 Edmund Devisscher conveyed to Arthur Cooke and William Theed twelve houses on the south side and the other half of the open ground in the street. (ref.12) By 1736 the ownership had become vested in Edmund Strudwick of St. Anne's, Soho, (ref.13) and in 1763 the eleven houses on the north side, and perhaps those on the south, had descended to Edmund Strudwick, of Ipswich, and Samuel Strudwick of St. Marylebone. (ref. 14) (History Online).....
