Wills
Wills have always been an extremely important source of genealogical
information on the property-owning classes, in Ireland as elsewhere.
They provide a clear picture of a family at a particular point
in time, and can often supply enough details of a much larger
network of relationships - cousins. nephews, in-laws and others
- to produce quite a substantial family tree.
Apart from their genealogical significance, wills can also evoke
vividly the long-vanished way of life of those whose final wishes
they record.
