Richard Halke<\/a> was a cousin of my 9 x great grandfather, William Halke of Bircholt<\/a>, whom  he appointed his as his Executor. His probate documents are therefore of particular interest to me in showing something of what William had to do as Executor.<\/p>\n

My print off from which I made the following transcription is not the clearest, and a few words are almost certainly mistranscribed. I will be going through those whose meaning is currently unknown to me which will probably help, but I think the majority of words are right, enough to make it worth sharing. Probably not worth copying – if you want a copy I suggest you look for yourself or wait untill I’ve done more work on this.<\/em><\/p>\n
