my dear wife Catherine Wright for her life after her decease to my dear ------------Frances???? Wright ----------- the wife of William Charman
Trouble is William Charman married Letitia Wright and she wouldn't be Wright anyway if she was married. He did have a son James who doesn't seem to be mentioned

Thanks Kate
I'm now wondering if it says My dear children James Wright Letitia the wife of William Charman
James was the eldest and they do seem to be written in age order. He didn't have a Frances.
At first I thought it said James and then changed my mind to Frances

Yes, I thought it said James at first then when I saw you said it was Frances I thought it looked like that!
It's a bit small for me to see, but I can't see a C in it (as in Frances) - they do a C like a lower case I, but without the dot.
Should you be doing this Marg??!!!

I've not typed them up Merry, just written out by hand what it says. Couldn't type that much yet.
James makes more sense than Frances, they had a James but not a Frances.
I didn't mean the typing/writing, I meant should you be fretting about them! lol

I'm not fretting, it's just giving me something to do. Just sitting on my backside all day is boring.
