Date, place and cause of death

Date and place of burial
There are two burials at Linchmere. As Abraham didn't write his will until May 1742 it must be the 1742 burial. However, who is Abraham senior? It has always made me wonder if the Bramshott baptism is correct, but Abraham had a son called Robert.
