There are two different wills cited (references 5 and 6), the Suffolk Wills Abstract dated July 1624 and the PCC will dated 1628. I think there is a transcription error in the published Suffolk Wills abstract see Two Brame Wills, Suffolk

Hello Helen thankyou so much for contributing. Please see this Free Space which examines all Brame Wills, some baptisms and other information regarding this highly complicated family name. (Also that of derivative, Braham Iformerly Brame until after 1590 when they moved from Wetheringsett to that of Campsea Ashe, ) . Are you okay if I copy and paste your comments on the wills which yes I concur with, onto the Brame-1 Free Space page or merge them ? What are your thoughts ? The Brame family is one I have been working on about 3 months now and have finally found the various family lines. The steps in this process were first to find which John Brames belonged with which parents and then the next step was to align children. The final part will be to align the various wills with the particular John Brames at times some of the family had two or three John Brames over four or 5 generations at least so you can imagine the tangled web it was. Here is the Free Space Page :https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:BRAME_-1.
