Transcriber's and Editor's Notes

Buried 4 Aug 1697 Kingham.
The original will has damage to part of the probate note and the register copy has no probate for comparison.
The date of Probate (and probably also Exhibition) could be 10 Mar or 10 May 1698. But if it were the 10 March following her August death it would be given as 1697 (Julian calendar), so it is either May 1698 or Mar 1698/69. The editor bets on May.
Note that the sequence of money bequests (retained in the Translation though not in the Summary) may imply sibling-hood between married women and the preceding males.
There appear to be two Nehemiah NORGROVEs, but which of them is dead is anyone's guess.
An Inventory is included, but its entire RHS is missing due to severe damage.
Its date (known to be 6th) is assumed to have been in August soon after her burial, as would be usual.

Translated and paragraphed.
with some of the standard preamble and "legalese" removed.

... I Elizabeth Hacker of Kingham ... spinster ... weak in body ...

I give all my lands, tenements etc in GLS Mickleton to my cousin Richard Hacker of Kingham, gent, and John Norgrove of Chipping Norton, tanner, and their heirs etc for ever, Upon Trust as follows:
- If my cousin John Hacker of Glympton, clerk, wishes to buy [the property] for Ł1300, my trustees [are to sell it to him].
  If he refuses to buy it at that price within a year after my decease they are to sell it within the next six months for the best price obtainable.
- They are to dispose of the Ł1300 or other proceeds of the sale, plus the rents etc from my death until the sale, first to pay my debts, then to pay as much of the legacies below as possible with the available residue.
  Any legacies then unpaid are to be paid by my Executor.
I give my close etc in Churchill known as the Corn Leasow to the above John Hacker, clerk, and George Hacker of Churchill, gent, and their heirs etc Upon Trust as follows:
- To let [the property] after my decease until John and/or Edward Hacker, sons of John Hacker of Charlbury, mercer deceased, reaches age 21.
- In the meantime to lay out the rents etc for their maintenance and education and to place them out as apprentices.
- After either John or Edward Hacker reaches 21 [it seems as if she can't remember which is the elder] ...
  - If within one month [the above] Richard Hacker pays Ł150 to the 21-year-old and gives adequate security (as approved by my trustees) for the payment of another Ł150 to the other at age 21, then on the request and at the expense of Richard Hacker my trustees are to convey [the property] to him and his heirs etc forever.
  - If Richard Hacker refuses to pay, or dies before either John or Edward reaches 21, my trustees are to dispose of [the Corn Leasow], by sale or otherwise, for the equal benefit of John and Edward, or for the survivor of either dies before 21.
  - If both John and Edward Hacker die before 21, Ł120 of the proceeds of the sale of [the Corn Leasow] is to be divided equally between their three sisters Mary, Katherin and Elizabeth, and the residue paid to the above George Hacker.
I give the 2⅛ yard lands etc in Churchill now in my own possession to the above John Hacker, clerk, and Richard Hacker for a 99-year term Upon Trust as follows:
- My trustees are to raise the following sums from the rents etc and pay them (at the present dwelling house of Thomas Hacker in Churchill, by equal portions at Michaelmas and Lady Day beginning on the first such day after my decease) as follows:
  - Ł6 pa to William Hacker of the City of Oxford, gent, for life.
  - Ł6 pa to Thomas Marshall of Little Tew for life.
  - Ł6 pa to Thomas Hacker of Churchill, yeoman, for life.
    But if Mary Hacker, widow, mother of Thomas, pre-deceases him, his Ł6 pa is to be divided equally between his then-living children.
- If George Hacker will pay the above [annuities] as directed, my trustees are to permit him and his heirs etc to hold and enjoy [the land etc] and take the profits for his own benefit during the 99 years.
  But if he defaults in all or part of any payment my trustees are to [take over the land etc] and pay the [annuities] out of the rents etc, paying the surplus to him.
- After the end or earlier determination of the 99 years [ie when all the recipients have died] I give [the land etc] to the above George Hacker and his heirs forever.
I give the following sums of money [with the usual provisos to exclude the husbands of married women.]
