Rev. F. Brown remarked that no doubt the house belonged to the Turbervilles, and that they occupied it. From some notes he had collected, he found them as owners to quite a late period. In 1680, the will of George Turberville of Tolland was proved, March 18th, in which he left all his goods to his brother John. John married Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Peter Fortescue, who died in 1686; and he found in the will of a gentleman named Fortescue, of Berkshire, in 1746, mention of "my daughter Turberville of Tolland."

John Turberville --- He was educated at Oxford. In 1667 he married Elizabeth Fortescue, dau. of Sir Peter Fortescue. He received a substantial dowry of 1,200 pounds, with his wife at marriage. They also received the manors of Hoccombe, Pyleigh and Torr in nearby Lydeard St. Lawrence parish. In 1677 he inherited the manor house at Gaulden and he died in 1681. Eight years later, his widow, and son, Fortesque, a London barrister, sold the property to Edward Galhampton.
