Title: Top line of Will, England, 1830s
Post by: nicdigby on Tuesday 17 June 25 14:17 BST (UK)
Hello, I think the top line says 'occupation of my brother James'.....do you agree?

It's just the top line I am seeking confirmation on.

NB: although the image is cropped, there are no clues above or to the right for the christian name of the brother.
