In the name of God amen the twelfth day of December in the year of our lord God 1616 I Robert Banks of Giggleswick in the county of York gent.

Banks Ann (widow of Robert gent) Giggleswick 1633 v42 f451
In the name of God amen the seventeenth day of August in the year of our lord according to the computation of the Church of England one thousand six hundred thirty and three I Ann Banks of Giggleswick widow late the wife of Robert Bank gentleman deceased sick in body but of good and perfect memory, praised be God therefore, do make and ordain this my last will and testament in manner and form following hereby revoking all former wills by me made. First I commend my soul into the hands of almighty God my maker trusting through the merits of my alone saviour and mediator Jesus Christ and not by any merit or meritorious act of my own to be made partaker of eternal bliss in heaven, and my body committed to the earth from whence it came to be buried in Christian and honest burial at the discretion of my executors, kinfolks and friends.
And whereas I am possessed of and interested in certain household stuff, bills, bonds, debts, annuities and other goods and chattels part whereof is in my own possession and occupation and part thereof is not as yet due and payable my will and mind is that my executors hereafter named shall, out of the same, pay and discharge my funeral expenses mortuary and other church dues and duties and also unto my several creditors the several debts I owe unto them if the same my goods and chattels will extend the payment thereof which I hope the same will do, howbeit if the same do prove short of payment of the same my mind is and I desire my son Joseph Banks to abate so much of the same shall be short of payment of my debts in the debt that I owe unto him and that not other of my creditors debts I owe them be abated, howbeit for my son in law Mr William Pickering whereas I have made unto him diverse payments and delivered goods unto him as in marriage portion with his wife my desire and request unto him is that though there be some reckonings in demand by him of me yet for so much as for those payments that I have made unto him were made at full and freely therefore I require him that he will be pleased to rest satisfied with what he hath already had without expectation of any more.
And if it do happen that my goods and chattels do extend further or will arise unto a greater value than the payment of my debt it is my will and mind that the surplus which shall so remain shall be distributed and employed betwixt and to and for the use of my said son Joseph Banks and young Robert Banks my grandson as my executors in their discretion and judgment shall think most requisite fitting and consement [sic].
And I make and ordain Ralph Baines my son in law and my cousin William Banks of this town executors of this my last will and testament.
