oooh!  me too please!  I love a challenge

Me too.  If I can read my boss's handwriting (which  looks like a spider crawling across the page after falling into a pot of ink) I'm sure I can read Olde English

I've had a quick look but can't make out any names which is I guess what you really want.  I can make out the odd legal term and I think there's a mention of "Anne my wife".  About 2/3rds of the way down he seems to leave his daughter "all household stuffs which her grandmother appointed for her".

I'll look at it again later but I'm going slightly crossed eyed at the moment.

Sorry I couldn't be much more help.

THanks for having a look, Little Nell has given me a very good account of the will but I appreciate you giving it the once over. Thanks for taking the time and trouble all the best anjo

Hi to every one who helped me with the will. I now have a decent copy of what it was all about and it all makes sense.
I really appreciate everyones time and trouble.

I would still like to hear from some people I sent out a copy to as it would be nice to compare, but I no longer need any more offers of help.

Thanks again and a big pat on the back for all that helped.

I would have been lost without you

All the best Anjo

Where are all my willing helpers gone. I am still waiting for your replies.
I'd love to hear what you thought of it. Please let me know whether you could make it out or not. Thanks Anjo

Hi Anjo,

I have translated about half the will, but I still have some holes in it and I just don't like handing in stuff half done.

So will keep trying with translationand get back to you. The writing is so small and so hard of reading it, bit harder than what I thought, but enjoy doing puzzles
