An Early Edward Bland of Hammersmith

 Here is some kind of probate document for an Edward Bland who lived in Hammersmith and died around 1743.  The document is dated January 11, 1744. 

The condition of this Obligation is such, that if the within boundon [sic] Edward Bland the natural and lawful Son and Administrator with the will annexed of all and singular the Goods Chattels Credits of Edward Bland late of Hammersmith in the parish of Fulham in the county of Middlesex 
?? By Elizabeth Bland widow the relict and ? Legatee named in the last will and testament of the said Edward Bland deceased.

The record is from:

Unfortunately the will is not annexed any more, if it ever was, and the list of belongings is not attached either. There is another document in the same file but I’m not sure what it is.  Dated on the same day, it gives the surviving Edward Bland’s occupation as Gardener. There’s a small note at the bottom which is difficult to make out but it includes the name Thomas Bland. Edward Buford of Hammersmith, carpenter, is also involved in this transaction.  Perhaps he is a co-executor?

However, this is enough to tell us that an Edward Bland of Hammersmith who had a son, also named Edward, and a wife named Elizabeth died circa 1744.
