Monaghan Wills
PRONI (Public Record Office, Northern Ireland) has added extracts from Will Books in their collection as well as copies of many of the Wills from the transcriptions in Will Books. Many people from Co. Monaghan are in this database and well worth checking - value of property was not always an indication of who might have left a Will.
