John Curthois/Curtis, Esq. of Tuddenham Hall in Suffolk, England

I am searching for info about John Curthois/Curtis of Tuddenham Hall in Suffolk County, England from about 1650-1678. His name is spelled many different ways in the records i.e.: Curthois, Curtoys, Curteys, Curtys, Curtheis. He is also listed as a gentleman of the Inner Temple of London in some records and in other records as a gentleman of the Middle Temple of London.

He married Gertrude Bacon in 1642. Their marriage license is found among the London marriage licenses. John and Gertrude had two daughters who were John's co-heirs. His daughters were Barbara Curtis who lived at Runtings Farm in Bramford and Gertrude who lived at Tuddenham at the time of John's death. John's wife, Gertrude, died sometime between 1664 and 1668. Unfortunately, the Tuddenham burial recordings do not begin until 1678. The last time her name is mentioned in found records is 1664.

The following info is recorded in the Parish Records for St. Martins in Tuddenham about John:

"John Curthois, Esq. buried at Bramford, but deceased at Tuddenham and affadavit given under the hands and seals of Francis Filer and Margaret Gorlston sworn before Christopher Milton, Esq. that he was buried in woolen according to the said act August 18th, 1678."

My question is: Does anyone know who his daughters Barbara and Gertrude Curtis married? I could find no record of them after they had to bargain sale in 1679 all of the property they had inherited to John Acton, Esq. of Bramford.

Any info gratefully appreciated.
