Title: kinrosshire will please
Post by: kevynne on Saturday 13 June 15 05:27 BST (UK)

William Coventry was a weaver in Milnathort, in 1851 moved to Stirling, in 1852 immigrated to Melbourne Australia where he died in 1864. I have searched Melbourne Public records for a will but had no results. how can I find if he possibly he left a will back home.
Thanks

Hi

There isn't any reference to a will on Scotlandspeople for either William or Andrew.

But there is one for David Coventry formerly of Pittendreich, afterwards of Milnathort, died 20 Apr 1837, Will dated 11 May 1849 (6 pages) http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/

kevynne, if you've not used scotlands people before, you can register and search for free but will need to purchase credits to view any images.

Thank you both for your help. I haven't used Scotlands people yet but will do as I have found a David who is possibly related.
cheers
