The dates in the PCC clerk's copy are clear, but one of them must be wrong. His burial record would probably help. The following details are believed to be true but should not be totally relied upon: Testator: Son of William (1711 qv); Brother of Thomas (1752 qv). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
