On the other part of your message, I think the evidence is strong that the
man who was buried at Little Wittenham in 1597 is the same man who purchased
it.

There is in existence, or at least was, an M.B. on which he is described as
Auditor of the Mint, but also as "aged 89".
There would not seem likely to be enough room for an earlier William then.
