Following the Pond Dipper's suggestion here is a transcription of the Will. The Will raises a couple of questions. Did Moses farm at Saddlewood? Unless Saddlewood is in the Dunkirk area I believe that the Saddlewood ILES are incomers as indicated in the 1851 Census. Dorothy Arkell ILES of Saddlewood is buried in Hawkesbury churchyard. Her son Daniel was born in North Cerney. The other question is that of Moses son William. He is not mentioned in the Will so was he dead by March 1851 when the Will was written? Did he fall out with his father? Was he the William who married Elizabeth ASHBEE? Who is the William ILES aged 58 carpenter, with wife Betty in the 1851 Hawkesbury Census? Is this Moses son or another William ILES? Moses son Daniel ILES can be found in Thornbury in the 1851 Census. He appears to have been baptised after his mother died and is enumerated as Daniel HES on the IGI. Anyway on with the Will.....
