"There is a Henry Cossentine (b. 1813) under whom my gt grandfather, Joseph T Bray (only son of Diana), apprenticed. I have the original indenture signed by Henry, his son John and Joseph T Bray. I have attached a copy of this document. The agreement was initiated on 15 Sep 1862, and ended on 15 Sep 1869, representing a seven year contract. 'JTB Indenture1' is a scan showing their signatures at the onset (my scanner is not large enough to cover the whole document). 'JTB Indenture2' is a scan of the back of the document which shows signatures indicating successful completion of Joseph T Bray's apprenticeship. Notice that A H Cossentine signed for John Cossentine. Would this be Arthur Henry Cossentine, John's brother?" (Massive thanks to Bill Dickinson)
