Hi Grantley,

I think in the context line 3 might be "thinke good" rather than "thank god" and then
 continue " And likewise yt Alice my daughter {singular} ...." 

And could line 5 begin "space of" {followed by a term of years before} "next"  ?

I can't see anything else at the moment.

Roger

Once again, thankyou very much Roger.

Your suggestions have helped make this document understandable.

Wow, this Will really slowed me down.

I decided not to post the bad bits, as they were just imposible.

Thanks, again.

Regards
Grantley
