3 x Great Grandfathers Will * COMPLETED MANY THANKS*
« on: Sunday 13 August 17 17:09 BST (UK) »
Hi, I recently acquired my Great x 3 Grandfathers will and whilst I can make some of it out there are a few bits I can't decipher so I was wondering whether anybody would like to give it a go?.

Many thanks

Hallo, Angela.

Could you let us know which lines are giving you trouble?  It's a bit long to transcribe in total.
