"The New York Genealogical and Biographical Record," 86(1955):132-148, 209-221, "The Feake Family of Norfolk, London, and Colonial America," by George E. McCracken:
"James Feake, whom we tentatively identify as son of the preceding James Feake (no. 2) and not as son of William (no. 1), was one of the feoffees to uses appointed in 1533 under the will of Walter Brightmer of Wighton deceased (Wighton Deeds, Bundle 3, no. 16). As the name Walter does not appear in the Feaké family, we forbear to suggest that James Feake's mother was daughter to Brightmer.
This James Feake of Wighton made his will Jan. 23, 1538/9, probated at Walsingham July 18, 1539 (Norwich Archdeaconry Court – the abstract printed by Delafield is not quite perfect in that it omits the son James). Executors are son George and wife Agnes; supervisor, Edmond Framyngham of Colthorpp; witnesses; Simon Browen, vicar, Robert Glaise, Simon Dobyn, John M[er]chaunt et al. Burial is directed in the "north ile next to the Sepulchre of my Father" in the church of Wighton. Son George appears to be eldest, still a minor; other sons are Simon, James, Robert, and William, and the wife is named Agnes. As the son William had a brother Edmond Feake, and as the son George was in 1578 given a power of attorney by Edmund Framyngham, either the supervisor of the will or his son, [POSSIBLE/ASSUMED BUT NOT PROVEN SO LET'S NOT MAKE THINGS UP REGARDING THE SURNAME OR PATERNITY OF AGNES] we think it possible that Agnes was a Framyngham. [POSSIBLE/ASSUMED BUT NOT PROVEN SO LET'S NOT MAKE THINGS UP REGARDING THE SURNAME OR PATERNITY OF AGNES]
We identify this testator as the James Feake of Wighton who was certainly father to the London goldsmith William Feake (no. 13), and in turn grandfather or great-grandfather of three of the four American Feakes. He is called Jacobus Feake de Whighton in Norfolk in the 1623 pedigree, James Feake of Wighton in the 1664 pedigree, his generation being omitted in the others. We think it likely that the widow gave birth to a posthumous son Edmond or Edward (no. 14), and then subsequently married, second, a man named Angell, by which marriage she became, ultimately if not at once, the mother or stepmother, or the mother-in-law or stepmother-in-law, of a woman whose surname in I 595 was Jygg and of men named John Angell and William Angell. The children of sister Jygg and of brothers John Angell and William Angell appear as beneficiaries of William Feake's will in 1595 but their inheritance is only a fraction of that received by children of William Feake's blood brothers. William Angell and John Angell appear, with George Feake, clerke, among others, on a muster roll of Wighton dating from the period 1569-1577 (Norfolk Record Society 6:76). Children: 6:
i. George, minor in 1539, living 1593, d. by 1595.
ii. Simon, d. 1570 at Kettleston.
iii. James, d. 1590, intestate, St. John Zachary, London.
iv. Robert, living 1570, perhaps much later.
v. William, fifth son, d. May 1595, in London.
vi. Edmond or Edward, b. posthumously in 1539."
