Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Help With A Probate Inventory
« on: Saturday 24 October 15 20:10 BST (UK)  »
Hello!

I've been transcribing a probate inventory for my ancestor John Oldham, which was proved in Nottingham in 1762.
This item is 'In the Kitchen' but I can't work out what it is, I thought possibly 'Brewing.....'

I'd very much appreciate some help,
thank you,
Caroline

Thanks Ken.

Percy overstayed his leave a few times according to his service record - including an episode of drunkenness in June 1917 and another for drinking in the cafe Les Clas Fleuri during prohibited hours in November 1918.

Thank you everyone - my next question was to ask what 'tattoo' meant in this context.
According to his service record Uncle Percy overstayed his leave on quite a few occasions - he also had one incidence of drunkenness & one of wilful disobedience!

thanks again,

Thanks for your replies, they've been very helpful. I hadn't managed to pick out 'overstaying sick furlough' or 'until reporting at.'
Percy had been wounded in April 18 and  he had a stay in hospital with pneumonia immediately after that. Looks like he took a detour on his way back to his unit!

many thanks,

Hi everyone,

I would very much appreciate some help with deciphering this section of my GG-Uncle Percy's service record. I can pick out a few words, but not enough for his offence to make sense.

thank you,

Hello everyone,

I am struggling to read the name of the church on this marriage certificate and would very much appreciate your help.  It looks like The ????parish Church.
The groom was from 15 Chadwick Street and the bride from 40 Silver Street if that helps.

Thank you,

Cally
