At UKfamilyrecords we have launched a new database of people named in Wills. The database currently holds over 11,000 names (some people appear twice in their capacity as Executor and Beneficiary or Testator).
The index includes the names of testators, executors and beneficiaries spanning the years 1700-2011. It is not complete, but we add new records on a weekly basis.
Access to the index is currently free for Rootschat users:
https://ukfamilyrecords.com/genbase/In the future it will only be available as part of UKfamilyrecords Membership. Our membership entitles members to discounts off their genealogy research. At the moment the discount codes are also freely available, so please use them.
Update 2/12/2011
If you are having difficulty using the index, you will need to register an account first. Just a login name and password is needed.
