Henry Williams (alias Cromwell)
You made some edits to Henry Williams (alias Cromwell) and I can see that you found the citation templates confusing (diff) if you would like some help with the edit please let me know. Do you have a to the source "The Most Strange Discoverie of the Three Witches of Warboys (1593)"? -- PBS (talk) 06:43, 3 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Yes I have been having problems with including the source which can be found at https://archive.org/details/WarboysWitchesTrialAndExecution I am also very busy at the moment and don't have time to navigate the wiki information, so if you could kindly do this for me, I would be very, very grateful. I have edited pages before and don't remember having problems then. Next time I come to edit wiki I will ensure that I have read the guidance...Many thanks -- (MazHistory (talk) 08:39, 4 September 2015 (UTC))

You need to login (to right corner) with your user name before writing to this or any other page.

Here is the book in the appropriate format

The problem I have is that you wanted to use the source to support certain facts through changes to to and to Here is the diff
 * Some time after the death of Joan, Sir Henry married a lady of the name of Weeks
 * Some time after the death of Joan, Sir Henry married Susan Weeks
 * causing the death of Joan through witchcraft and executed a few days later
 * causing the death of Susan through witchcraft and executed a few days later.

I have skimmed through the Trial document (I find the font difficult to read, and so does the OCR converter) however I found a mention of "Lady Cromwell" on the front cover and throughout the document: front cover, 29, 71, 77, 81, 83, 87, 89, 97, 99, 101, 107.

But I did not find any text in the document that supports the changes you want to make. Please could you point me to the correct page where "Susan" is mentioned by name. -- PBS (talk) 21:30, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

Many thanks for helping in this matter. I stand corrected on the source - though it is a primary source on the Warboys case. The specific naming of Lady Susan can be found in Searle, W G (1871) The History of the Queens' College of St Margaret and St Bernard in the University of Cambridge Part II 1560-1662. Cambridge Antiquarian Society. p384 which includes a transcription from II Leasebook. https://archive.org/stream/historyqueensco00seargoog#page/n96/mode/2up As regards the identity of Susan, this can also be confirmed on the History of Parliament website http://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/volume/1558-1603/member/cromwell-alias-williams-henry-1537-1604 I have an extremely busy term ahead but by mid-December I hope to find time to come back to wiki to update a number of pages with which I have an interest.
