Deciphering a poor photocopy of a will from ProbateSearch - COMPLETED
« on: Friday 26 January 24 10:48 GMT (UK) »
I'm probably being somewhat stupid about this but I can't work out what the section after "twenty one years" is meant to say. I've been guessing but can't come up with anything plausible.

If anyone can help, I'd be really grateful.

And most especially the origins of William Cannings,  a Baptist, born abt 1791 in Broughton Gifford, Wiltshire

Why not add it as an attachment in the normal way?

Having now worked it out and had a plausible guess, perhaps you could delete this topic Shaun? Thank you.

I don't have the power to delete topics. If you think you have the answer now, you can modify the subject heading of your original post to show that it is "Completed"
