In this episode I speak with Emma Cox in regards to reading Old English handwriting in Colonial Jamaica. We will be delving into three types of records to interpret and understand the context of the document.

Bio:

Emma Cox has traced her own family history back to royalty in the 12th century and to Huguenots in France, cloth makers and ironmongers in Somerset, farmers and furniture makers in Scotland, and to bishops, barristers, members of parliament and judges across England and the Isle of Man.
