Margaret Corteen, 1684, Widow

I have a petition by Margaret Corteen, widow, dated 19 June 1684 at Lezayre.

From the petition it would seem her husband died earlier in the year as mention is made of the fact that soon after his Will & Inventory were proved several of the cattle died due to lack of fodder in the severe winter.

3 young children are mentioned.

Anyone know the husband was ?

Names of husband & children are not given and so far I have been unable to associate this petion with a Will.
