James Bagnall Will 1704

…had a helluva time finding this… Jennifer from California helped me out…

So the Big Dark Cloud hanging over this Will is that it was “Imbezelled“. Man…I needed some scandal to get my juices flowing…

So with that in the background, perhaps you puzzle solvers might take a crack at dissecting this puppy…

hey…if you really think it is 1702 just say it

…and click the blue filename above for a better view   I ain’t gonna ask who you think the Imbezeller was…

=================================================

That was the warm up…

Roger Bagnall’s wife was a Rebecca…….. no one seems to have identified this woman… I really suspect this woman was “somehow” connected to Robert Bracewell the preacher.

Roger’s son was James Bagnall… wife Ann Bracewell (daughter of the preacher)…James Bagnall had a daughter Rebecca/Rebeka

Roger’s grandson was Robert Bagnall… wife Rebecca This Roger Bagnall had a sister Rebeka/Rebecca Bagnall   (one Rebeka Bagnall stays around the area as of 1755… I have not dissected her as yet)

Has anyone identified these Rebeccas? Of course, to add to the puzzle, the preacher also had a daughter Rebecca that married William West “the Rebel” and seems to have stayed with him until her death (but I still do not rule her out of the puzzle.)    …with that being said…
