3             Braddan
We do affirm this to be the last will of Ann 
Hampton of the parish of KK Braddan who departed 
this life March last 1739/40, being in perfect 
mind and memory she committed her soul to God 
and body to Christian burial.  
Item, she left and bequeathed to John Crow her 
part of a heifer now in the keeping of Thomas 
Cowley of Ballecrink.  
Item, she left to her goddaughter John Fayle’s 
daughter a sheep or a mutton.  
Item, she left and bequeathed to her godson 
Robert Lewin’s son her part of a yearling 
calf in the keeping of the said Robert Lewin.  
She left to their own manservant Thomas Cowin 
a mutton.  
Item, she left and bequeathed to her loving 
mother her chest with her linen and woolen 
clothes shaped and unshaped excepting what 
pewter was then in it.  
And lastly she nominated and appointed her 
loving brother Thomas Hampton sole executor 
of all the rest of her goods moveable or 
immoveable of what kind or nature soever.  
And also twelve pence apiece to the witnesses 
to this will.  
This is truth as we will depose this 15th 
May 1740.  
Robt Cowin my mark, 
Margret Crain my mark.          

The Executor is sworn in Court in form of Law.  
And has given pledges Ewan Killey Collonnys & 
Robt Cown Clei-banef[?].  
Probatum est & Solvit 12d.
