www.essexcc.gov.uk/heritage/ero/seax/ 8Jan1599 Ref Code: Q/SR 144/61 Edward among others is witness against 2 who assualted constable and others in church yard after justice serves warrantA fellow Marvin researcher recently supplied me with a copy of the will of Edward-A Marvin, the father of Matthew-1 Marvin, the immigrant ancestor. I am in the process of transcribing it (it's written in the very hard-to-decipher "secretaty hand" of the 16th Century). While I have transcribed most of it, there are some problem words I am still working on. But I wanted to post what I had as soon as possible to allow others to have the information. I have retained the original spelling and punctuation; brackets indicate a word which is presently illegible to me. The will itself is filed in the Essex (England) Record Office ref: D/AC/W11-313.
