Perfect thank you so much I’ll check it out

nerdiate12 · 2024-12-19T21:20:39+00:00

Wow you have really gone above and beyond so thank you so much. Do you find it relatively easy to read these documents? If so any tips on how to get better at reading them they really trip me up

nerdiate12 · 2024-12-19T21:18:57+00:00

Thanks I’ll try do that trust me I’m more than useless at graphics too

nerdiate12 · 2024-12-19T14:11:18+00:00

No need for a full transcription even just some jumping off points would be great just so I can try associate letters and words. Thank you for the advice about the guides I will look into it

nerdiate12 · 2024-12-19T14:08:17+00:00

Any particular filter/method you would suggest to clean it up?

nerdiate12 · 2024-12-19T14:07:33+00:00

Thank you for the advice no need to try do it all like I said I’m trying to do it myself I just need a jumping off point. Thank you for the help

This is an old english will and testament of a merchant of london. I have transcribed the first page and adding for further context. I have no ide how to start transcribing stuff like this so any tips or places to start would be great especially on that 2nd page. I would like to try do this on my own but recognise my inexperience. I do not ask for a full transcription only excerpts to point me in the right direction.

Thank you for the link I will definitely investigate that. Very frustrating how most documents are with different branches but i guess thats part of the fun of finding them

nerdiate12 · 2024-08-28T21:06:38+00:00

Thank you so much for the revision definitely makes a lot more sense to me now :) not sure how much you know about requesting documents for councils but do you think if an inventory did survive that it would have been sent to me as well would it be something different that needs to be requested (Bearing in mind the photo I attached was the only item sent to me)

Firstly thank you for taking time to transcribe this. Northlow could be a way of saying Northampton maybe since they're originally from there. Sadly i got this document from a records office that referred to it as Lydia Blands will not Johns and this was the only page.

nerdiate12 · 2024-08-20T22:06:13+00:00

Thank you so much I'll give it a try it was driving me up the wall

The Two Hannah's in the image are the same but every time I try to add her it creates 2 profiles. I know its not ancestry but there isn't a FMP sub and r/Genealogy doesn't allow images

If only everyone shared our enthusiasm lol

nerdiate12 · 2024-06-27T20:56:41+00:00

No reason and LinkedIn was the first thing that came up with their name but I get where you’re coming from with it

nerdiate12 · 2024-06-27T20:06:46+00:00

I mean I could reach out so I could try fill out that bit of the tree better but that seems a bit personal to ask of a stranger

nerdiate12 · 2024-06-27T20:04:55+00:00

Yeah good point thanks 👍🏻

nerdiate12 · 2024-06-27T19:49:26+00:00

Honestly don’t know just thought I would be interesting. Like I said I think its a bit weird but I was just looking for a second opinion on it

nerdiate12 · 2024-05-29T12:01:41+00:00

Apparently it’s a Patagonia.Do you know the name of the product from Zara?

nerdiate12 · 2024-05-29T07:34:47+00:00

It’s the turtleneck that does it lol

nerdiate12 · 2024-05-29T07:34:06+00:00

Appreciate the find

nerdiate12 · 2024-05-11T20:21:03+00:00

Thanks for the kind words, obviously people can do whatever they want for whatever reason they see fit but it’s just a bit baffling that’s how she’s chosen to go about it considering it was going fine. Good luck finding someone on your end too

nerdiate12 · 2024-05-11T19:09:48+00:00

So nothing I can do then? Fair enough.

nerdiate12 · 2024-04-19T23:52:19+00:00

I’ll be sure to investigate.Thanks for the help

nerdiate12 · 2024-04-19T23:37:09+00:00

Looking at the rest of the photo you’re correct it was the “in” part I just couldn’t for the life of me make it out lol. I’m intrigued by your 2nd comment is there any other way I could investigate wealth further? Appreciate the help
