Wiltshire Will of 1724
« on: Monday 30 July 18 13:03 BST (UK) »
The Inventory attached to this Will is beautifully written so the words underlined are new to me. Any help to make them clear will be appreciated. Thanks, Toby.

It's that classic letter that we read as an 'r', but is actually a 'c', Toby!  :)
One of the letters that is now very different - have to retrain the brain!

Quite right goldie61. Things are certainly easier now compared with when I was working on the first will.
The inventory is now complete barring  these last 2 underlinings. The will will be no problem as he died intestate.
Thanks for continuing help. T

Many thanks. That completes the inventory. I aim however to keep you all in business as there are more Hornblow wills to attack. T
