1643 Will - Graime
« on: Friday 30 October 20 18:40 GMT (UK) »
I'd appreciate it if someone would confirm that the first five words in the 4th line of the attached are "her sonne and my heire"
I want to be quite sure because, if that is correct, it's an important clue in tracing my ancestors.
And, if possible, a translation of the Latin paragraph at the end would be appreciated too, please.

Yes.
It says 'her sonne and my heire'

Added:
I think the last word on that line is 'soweing', not 'sewing'. He is giving him 'seed for sowing'.

Line 6 'shalbe spente in the House

A few more bits, and the Latin ...

... Corne for soweing Sorry, goldie has posted this already.

... of the ground the nexte yeare ...

... unmoveable ...

... whom I make sole Executor ...


Carl’ 5o die Augusti 1643 p(ro)bat(um) fuit h(uius)mo(d)i
testam(en)tu(m)  Ac Ad(ministraci)o com(m)iss(u)s[?] fuit execut(ori)
iurat(o) &c
Nulla cauc(io) &c


At Carlisle on the 5th day of August 1643 this will was proved and administration was granted to the executor, who was sworn, etc. No security, etc.

The usual word for the administration being granted is com(m)issa, but this seems to end in -s.

Yes "soweing" and "shalbe spente" make more sense - thanks.

And many thanks, Bookbox, for the Latin transcript and translation !!

Now all I have to do is find out what the name of Margaret's (presumably deceased) husband was  :D
