Understanding Decrees in Chancery

[hallmark]

P,M. me your email address if you want and I can pass it on to the person/relative who did the pedigree

   I just can't read the writing on the document, let alone understand what is being proposed but when I get over to Ireland, I will try and find somebody maybe in a library that can read the documents for me.
 

It is explained better here.....

I did re-read or try to read a land, estate record you sent me before involving Rebecca Sheils Eccleston, and Brabazon and sure enough I was able to see James Hudson Bond, so these people are all connected.  I just can't read the writing on the document, let alone understand what is being proposed but when I get over to Ireland, I will try and find somebody maybe in a library that can read the documents for me.

I was just reading this post as a browse as the 'Decrees in Chancery' caught my eye.

Just to say that there is a specific board here on Rootschat (if you've haven't seen it), where Rootschatters can transcribe old documents and handwriting.
If you'd like to post, say, the first part, I'm sure somebody would be able to help you.............. many people with time on their hands!
It's always a good idea to try and not post the whole thing, but break it down into smaller chunks.
You're limited to 500 kbs for an image, so try and get it as near to that as possible as that helps when enlarging it to read it.
Handwriting Deciphering board here:

Good luck and stay well!

I posted a Link to it and a pile of others and would have no problem explaining it if I knew which thread it was on and which one was being referred to.

Thank you everyone for the continued help and support and tips.  Have found a few new bits of information I have to follow up on. Also will forward my 18th century document in small sections and see if I can get another set of eyes to make out the writing!!!

Hope everyone takes good care during this difficult time. You are all so lovely and kind and I really appreciate the help always.

Cheers.
