1 forname & 1 surname from a 1572 will
« on: Tuesday 17 October 17 15:54 BST (UK) »
Help, as usual, required please.

The best I can do with the forename in extract 1 is Jermaine - is this correct or am I just being hopeful?

Extracts 2a & 2b - It looks like Hudsby but not at all sure

thanks

The surnames are all Hudson.

The forename, I believe, is Thomas:   ...bequeath to Thomas...

Thanks, I agree it is probably Thomas. The gap between the T & h is a bit bigger than I have seen before.

See extract 2a beginning of line 5
