A brief will.
Will written 1831 and proved 1832.
Childbed linen maker.
After all debts, funeral expenses paid all household furniture, plate, linen, china and all other personal estate to dear wife Elizabeth. She was the sole executor.
Witnessed by John Wright and W Jackson.
I obtained my will copy from the National Archives, Kew. This I then transcribed and summarized here.
Notes:
Richard lived and ran his business from West Street. Elizabeth continued to live there for at least a few years after his death. Their home was on same side of the road as the Ship Inn. She Elizabeth on the 1833 parochial Assessment here.
W Jackson the will witness was William Jackson a Marlow watchmaker.
