Welcome to the Dorset County Section of the site.

 

Here are the Wills that I have listed on the site where the testator came from Dorset.

I do hope that you find this site easy to navigate, and I do hope that you manage to find something that can be helpful in your research.

Best Wishes

Peter

 

This map shows where the county of Dorset is located, I have also placed on the map many of the places where the testator of the wills came from, as I thought that this may be of help to you. The map will open in a separate window if you click on the it.
