1641/1642 Westmorland Protestation Returns
« on: Wednesday 14 July 10 01:50 BST (UK) »
Hi Deborah, I'm interested in any Machell who might be listed on these returns.  (Machell has a number of spelling variants: Maichel, Maychel, Matchel, Maitchal, etc.--but, fortunately, it's quite an uncommon surname.)
Thank you,
Bridget
