    Transcription of the 1627 will of Giles Whiting, clerk of Etton, Northampton

    Three images comprise the probate record for Giles Whiting. The first image, Document 7a, shows a document written in 1627 and which summarizes some, but not all, of the legatees. Words on the extreme left margin of the document are incomplete or missing due to tight binding. Words on the extreme right margin are partially illegible due to darkness of the image. The second and third images, Documents 7b and 7c, show the will as written in 1625. Together these two images offer the complete will. This will looks more like a draft then the final document. Many lines of the will, especially on Document 7b, are interposed one on top of the other making it extremely difficult, and in some cases impossible, to distinguish the individual phrases. Other phrases are crossed out. Words on the right margin are in some cases too dark to clearly distinguish. The Latin words and abbreviations are transcribed as found in the documents with the exception of the probate statement at the end of the will which has been summarized in an English translation.
