Many thanks for those who responded about the term "intermarried".
I couldn't give the whole context (the will is 7 pages long + a codicil) but there are pointers that there might have been a previous marriage.
I've not come across the term in other wills of the period and I was wondering if anyone else had come across the term where a 2nd marriage was actually known about.

If nothing else, perhaps listers who come across "intermarried" in a will might like to think about the possibility of an earlier marriage.

Dear Brian,

I'm not absolutely sure, but I think it's just a complicated legal term for
"married".As far as I know there are no sinister implications (unless the
lawyer who wrote the will was charging by the word!!)

Regards,
Jeanette.
