Observations:

The inventory value and the surety value of the bond seem to bear little connection, whilst the bond is often 3 or 4 times the inventory value this seems disproportionate. The inventory contains one or two items of interest a flax wheel, a clock, and a close stool, the latter two items may indicate a slightly higher level of sophistication in the household.  A separate admon and coversheet 5 sheets in all.
