Help with names and a few other words on this list of debtors please
« on: Thursday 14 August 25 00:32 BST (UK) »
Hello.

This is part of a list of people owing money for malt in 1645.
Any help with this would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Little Nell, especially the word "accompte" which I thought was "arrompte".
You have helped a lot.
