Clip 1
........English accoumpt - ie, the English account of dates as opposed to regnal dates

......will and Testament as followeth

clip 2
...... Lett hinderance trouble eviction? Slite   
Slite - slight
I think it's 'Lett' and not 'least' - I have seen this a lot in wills.
According to my dictionary there is an archaic meaning for the noun 'let', meaning a hinderance or obstruction.

clip3
.......shall be and remaine........ to my youngest sonne

I think it is actually:  ...eviction Suite or molestac(i)on...

The loop is either a flourish or perhaps indicates an omitted letter:  something like  Su(e)ite

His writing exhibits a fondness for somewhat random flourishes, so I'd plump for the former.

Agree with: mix^t = mixed

The thing before 1694 is: &c = etc

ADDED:

I agree with goldie regarding both the transcription and the meaning of Lett.

[Bookbox]

I think the ‘creased’ line in clip 2 might be ...

... & hereditament(es) w(hi)ch I now have or heretofore have had used occupied (and) enjoyed and hereafter ...

ADDED - I agree with Suite, sometimes found in this context as Suit.

The word is:  Junio^r

ADDED:

In most documents of this time I and J were identical in form.

I must have studied that twenty times and never saw junior. So obvious.
