    PROB 11/12/139.

    The will (as far as I, Werebear, can make out) makes religious bequests in the parishes of Hawarden and Doddleston, makes his son "Ranulphus" executor, makes bequests (as Ranulph sees necessary) to [?], Agnes, and Elizabeth ["gem[]as meas" --my twins(?)], and leaves 20 shillings to Henrie de Le Woode (relationship unspecified). His overseers are Richard(?) Salthill and Ematum(?) de Dodeliston

    Proved 12 Jul 1486. ("duodecimo die mensis July Anno d[omi]ni sup[ra]dict.") The National Archive index has 12 July 1500. Perhaps the "supradict." refers to something not on the register copy of the will.
