    Default help reading old will!

    I have a will proved in 1822 that I cannot for the life of me read - I can make out phrases and the only name there appears to be in it is that of William's wife Mary.

    Is there someone out there that enjoys this kind of thing and can have a go at reading this for me?

    If you scan the area in and put it onto a site with the link here one of us will offer our opinion.

    Scanning the will and putting it on a site where we can all see is best as you'll get the biggest reponse. If you cannot do that, feel free to send me a private message and I'll let you have my e-mail address so you can send it as an attachment.

    Default Reading an old will

    If you can send me a decent scan I will transcribe the will for you. It is good for me to get Paleaography practice and I quite enjoy it.

    Drop me a line privately and I will give you my work e-mail address
