FREE - Birth, Marriage & Death Records

Welcome to the Will
Transcriptions Online Guest Book.
Please spare a few moments to sign the
guest book, I have made it possible for you to to be able to list family
names that you are researching, as I do feel that listing the names that we
are researching can help us to make contact with others who are researching
the same names.
Many Thanks and Best Wishes - Peter

Probate Scams
Please be aware that
there are currently several Probate scams in operation via the Internet
. Many of these will inform the recipient that they are the beneficiary
of a substantial legacy but will ask for fees and/or taxes in advance of
sending more information or the release of funds.
These will always be
fraudulent and on no account should you make any payment or transfer any
funds.
You can obtain
further information and advice concerning such scams on
www.met.police.uk/fraudalert

I read several of the transcribed wills. Folk had a
wonderful and different approach as to the use of words back
then and I find we have regretfully forgotten the art. I
have anyway. I particularly enjoyed reading the will of John
Brown of Wareham. He left property from the Isle of Purbeck,
the area of my genealogical Brown ancestors. Thank you very
much for making this will available to us at the touch of a
fingertip. Dan Hiscoe, Oct 2009. |
