"Hello Keith,
I observed your addition of my Bobbet in Suffolk County, England pedigree on
your myfamily.com World of Bobbitts And Associated Families and your
Bobbitt Family Around The World web site.
It is very nice except you are missing some extremely vital information about
the 1482 Will of William BEBAT transcribed by Vona Williams of the Salt Lake
City, Utah Family History Library and BYU paleography instructor and author of
many old British handwriting books, 1400's to 1700's.

The Will lists his wife Alice on line 7 "Alicie uxor me" which is Alice wife my;
also the beginning of line 9, almost the end of line 11, and the middle of
