Reading a Will COMPLETED WITH THANKS

[KPM]

Hi

After some wonderful help a few weeks ago, I have now successfully transcribed some wills on my own and am very grateful for the help I received - I learned a lot!

However, I now have another will which I am really struggling with and hope someone will again be able to help me with.

Here goes part 1!!

Line 1: In the name of God Amen I Joseph
Line 2: Stanney of [Weston?] Green in the parish of Thames Ditton in the county of
Line 3: surrey Cooper being of sound mind memory and understanding [word] this my
Line 4: last will and Testmanet in [ word] following that is to say I give and bequeath
Line 5: unto my beloved wife Sarah Stanney the sum of fifty five pounds four per cent
Line 6: stock now standing in my name in the [books?] of the [word] and company of
Line 7: the Bank of England to be paid her within one month [word] after my decease
Line 8: for her own immediate use and benefit.  Also I give and bequeath unto my said
Line 9: wife all my household goods and furniture plate [linen?] china and [word] and
Line 10: all my ready [word] [word]debts stock and implements of trade for her own use
Line 11: and benefit absolutely for ever except my gun also I give to my said wife

Many thanks in advance

Hi Alexander

Thank you for your help.  Not sure how to make this any bigger but will try

Here's the next part I'm stuck with - just a couple of words with this one.

Line 1: decease except the aforesaid sum of fifty five pounds stock to hold the said rents and
Line 2: interest of such stock or funds to her my said wife for and during the term of
Line 3: her natural life [she?] paying [word] all my just debts funeral and testamentary

Hi KPM,

I think the missing part is "she paying thereout all my just debts", you're right about the she.

Hi Alexander

Thanks - I agree - all it needs is a second pair of eyes.

Next part - just the one word - really stuck on this one.

Line 1: and from and immediately after the decease of my said wife I give devise and
Line 2: bequeath unto my son in law James Cheesman of Kingston upon Thames
Line 3: in the county of surrey Victualler all those my three freehold [word]

[Alexander.]

I suspect - messuages

Line 3: out of the executors to whom admon was granted being first sworn duly to
Line 4: [word] [word] [word] to Stephen brightwell the other executor

oops - for some reason I cant attach the last part - says the upload folder is full? not sure what I'm doing wrong but will try and attach again later

Hi

Lets see if this works now

[Alexander.]

Fairly standard wording on this last bit...

Line 1: Proved at London 8th February 1825 before the worshipful John Danbury
Line 2: Doctor of laws and surrogate by the oath of Sarah Stanney widow the Relict
Line 3: out of the executors to whom admon was granted being first sworn duly to
Line 4: Adm^r Power reserved to Stephen Brightwell the other executor

The Adm^r is of course Administer.
