Throughout the first page of the testament each sentence begins with "Item (number) be John Smith" or whoever. Before Rosina ? there is "Item 'delb' be Rosina F_________ The 'delb' is probably twelve, but who knows? One could become really mired in the mud with this lot.
In the .jpg "context" example, here are some words that I deciphered some time back:
line 2: _ _ _ _ appointed the Laird John McClellan of Bankend and
line 3: Gorg. McMurrie in ?Balgreddan
On the 3rd line from bottom, left margin, following "Hellen F_________(still to be decided) my wyfes and Janet McMurrie my daughter."
Perhaps these extra words will help
Of course I could get greedy and hope that the entire paragraph could be deciphered, but I'd be very happy with the names
