Ireland / Prerogative Wills Index lookup please?
« on: Wednesday 27 July 05 15:17 BST (UK) »
Hello,
I'm hoping sks has a copy of "Index to the Prerogative Wills of Ireland" and willing to look up the following entries for me:
1796 Coulter, Joseph, Dowdallshill, co. Louth, gent.
1801 Coulter, Joseph, Carnbegg, co. Louth, gent.
I think/hope these entries should also have reference information (volume number?) that I was newbie enough not to copy when I had access to the index (alas, no longer).
I want to order the LDS film(s) for these entries and believe I need volume information from the index to decide which films I need. If I'm wrong about this, then perhaps someone who knows could explain how to go about it?
Thanks,
Steve
PS for anyone who is wondering what all this is about - all the Prerogative Wills of Ireland were destroyed in 1922, but there are surviving genealogical abstracts of most of the wills up to 1810, by Betham - the index is to his abstracts.
