Names in Will of James Chapman
« on: Friday 23 February 18 20:55 GMT (UK) »
Is anyone able to double check the names (mainly surnames) of the people mentioned in this extract from a 1635 Will.

I believe the people are, in order:

"Jane Parker my sister"
"Susan Chapman my sister"
"Susan Parker my said sister's daughter" [ie Jane Parker's daughter]

There also appears to be two daughters of John Chapman ("my brother") listed but I'm not certain of their names, although I think the first is Isabell.

Thanks in advance for any ideas

Matt

I would go for Pecker, rather than Parker.

Now you say that I can see it clearly.

Many Thanks
