It's fantastic - I've even found lots of my Jones ancestors' wills

Thank you so much for this link!

That link doesn't work. Is it the pre-1858 Welsh wills? They've been online for several years

I think the link might be wrong now.

I've just deconstructed the original links

It looks as if the language was supposed to be in English but they come up in Welsh

I was stuck and found your 1st link ...realized that it was adding an extra bit on the end by mistake... not the 1st time that's happened so just knocked that bit off...clicked the english link in the top corner and found  an early Will that I'd been looking for...and was and am very grateful!
You made my day!

Da iawn 

There are also many online resources which are listed on the Wills search page.  Over the years, I've used the Marriage Bonds, Newspapers, Tithes and archive collection, etc.

Thank you for the link. I found the will of a 7x great grandfather. I was interested to read that he left his brother all his apparel except his best hat.
