Latin probate text transcription and translation help.

[probatumfuit]

Hi, I have three wills of a father (Richard Charnock) and his two sons (Stephen and Job). I have transcribed the English body but couldn't understand the Latin text at the end of three of them. Can anyone please provide me the transcriptions and their translations of only the latin parts? Thnx in advance.

My apologies. Presumably files got corrupted while downscaling the images. Never mind, here are the images now.

You're welcome. Please note (for any future requests) that for routine probate clauses such as these I wouldn't normally do a full Latin transcription as well as the translation, but I did both on this occasion as you are new to the forum and specifically requested both
