Wills and inventories
In the early days of the Society, members undertook the mammoth task of transcribing local wills, mainly from 17C and 18C, but some earlier. Some of these transcriptions were recorded using venerable typewriters and, in that respect, are beginning to look like the originals. Rather than repeat the task, and in order to make the data available, all the those transcriptions are published here in their original form. They are freely available for download.
The accuracy of transcriptions is not guaranteed. Original records should be consulted by anyone planning to rely on the information! References on the transcriptions are to the originals in the Hereford Record Office.
