Help with reading will from 1591

Hi does anyone know what it says? It’s from 1591











Regards

 

Going to guess it is the legal judgement in a debt case, solely based on words 'owed to' & 'five pounds'.

 

It is a will. The first 3 sections are lists of debts owed by and to the deceased. The 4th section is in Latin and, depending on where it occurs in the document, may be a notary's recording of the document. The last section begins with "In the name of God amen - on the fourteenth day of June in the year of our lord god one thousand five hundred ninety ? ", and is followed by the standard "being in sound body and mind" stuff, and saying where he wants to be buried. Not particularly exciting stuff. If you would like to learn how to read it, check out this website:

Excellent! So glad someone who knows something came along. I think 2manybooks should be added to the translator pool:

I know a little paleography, a little Latin - just enough to get in trouble.
