<< Hi Tony - I would be glad to send my original request, however, I have
lost *everything* on my computer (not sure if virus or what) - had to do a
complete system restore and my original request is gone! Haven't been able
to make backups because my floppy drive is malfunctioning.
My original request was simply if you could send me the will for Elizabeth
RENDER (or tell me how I might obtain it) that you listed in one of the
Knaresborough Will indexes. Elizabeth was the (T) mentioned and John RENDER
was one of the persons mentioned in her will. Is there any other information
besides the names of Elizabeth and John that I need to send to you?
Thanks so much ... I thought perhaps either you had not received my original
request or that your reply to my request had been wiped out when my computer
went down. Many kind regards >>

Roy Stockdill is always saying that in research we should not
"assume"............and that is precisely what you have done.....!! John
RENDER does not appear in the Will of Elizabeth RENDER. The index line in
question was :
<< Render Elizabeth(T), Jane, John >>
...........all this should tell you is that there is a Will/Admon for
Elizabth, and that Jane and John appear in a Will within the AC Series. As it
turns out, Jane does indeed appear in Elizabeth's Will, but John only appears
as a Bondsman in the Admon of James WILSON.
