Hi Designer Jeans
 What a brilliant find on FindmyPast.Thankyou so much for alerting me and  I found it.

 I did Latin at school many dcades ago and I cannot transcribe.  if you copy iit and send via private email  I do know someone who might be able to transcribe for us.

My son downloaded the Indenture document onto Ancestry.  It is quite useful to compare that and  John's will. Israel's brother.   One of his comments is as follows:
 In addition to his "sonne" Israel, Thomas also lists his "daughters",  Ann Cotton, wife of Richard Cotton (or is it Calton?) and Elizabeth Lod.

This fits with John Cantrill's will where parts of his estate to his nephews John Cantrill son of Israel, and nephew John Cotton. John Cotton is his Aunt Ann's son!

There is another daughter for us to follow up on, Elizabeth Lod. She is mentioned twice and it looks like Lod but I am not sure about the 'd'.


I am inot convinced Lod is correct but am still investigating. What do you think it is?

My son now has ambitions to try to take the Cantrill line we share with you back further....More wwork...

Many thanks again. for an invaluable piece of information.

cheers, Marp

Hi

I think Ann is Calton or Colton https://www.freereg.org.uk/search_records/6219164af493fd7fc3056998/anne-cantrill-richard-coltan-marriage-derbyshire-ashover-1675-09-?locale=en 

I also think it is Elizabeth Lee, the final e being written exactly the same as the final e in 'the'  This might be her? https://www.freereg.org.uk/search_records/682f49e48655746c65eeba64/elizabeth-cantrill-anthont-lee-marriage-derbyshire-alfreton-1668-05-12?locale=en

Thank you for offering to help with the latin document, I will download and email it to you

It would be wonderful to take the Cantrells back further but it will be difficult, there are lots of them in Derbyshire (and elsewhere)
