Title: Will of my Great Grandfather John Higham
Post by: fhaccord on Sunday 15 February 15 22:36 GMT (UK)

Hi
I attach the copy of the will - I cannot read the 2nd paragraph where he says "Excepting the ?????? which were not sold at the sale."
The background is that he was a Master Builder with his own firm - could it be scaffolding?
He also had a shop that his daughter Edith ran - could it be shop fittings?
His marriage cert was signed with a cross and his name was spelt wrong so not sure if the word is a misspelling as well?
Any help appreciated.
Frank

Hi
Can anyone decipher the 2nd paragraph of my great Grandfather's will please.
He was a builder who owned his own business, so wondered if the "excepting the ...." could be scaffolding.
He also had a shop so wondered if it was shop fittings.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Frank
