Is there the stain of a missing seal after Judah Bakor's signature?
How should the spacing of the folded paper's label "Judah Bakors Will" and the note about payment be transcribed? I tried transcribing with appropriate spacing but this didn't carry over to the "Read" view.
I think David "Shatnher" is Thatcher. Looks like he crossed both t's with one stroke!
@Alisonm The way you've done the spacing works fine. Capturing the layout of the document is less important than just keeping related text together within the transcription. Having "chunks" of transcriptions separated by multiple line breaks is good.
