It occurs to me as I read you reply, we are looking at two entirely different sources.
I couldn't tell what you were looking at hence asking for a link
What I did was highlight & right click what it has in your link...
"Ireland, Diocesan and Prerogative Wills & Administrations Indexes, 1595-1858"
Which takes me here...http://census.nationalarchives.ie/search/dw/home.jsp
Which should be the same Public Records Office in my previous link - Public Records of Ireland?
The other would be Public Records of Northern Ireland...
https://www.nidirect.gov.uk/services/search-will-calendars
Hope it's of help.

Indeed the link appears to do that!
But what I have is a 'snip' of the actual Index Ledger Book pages, which is too large a file, 904KB, to post here. Instead, on my original post, I shared just the line with the family name 'Muckedon', the first name 'John' and, what really got my attention, the location. 'Bingo' thought I, as imagining I had broken through yet another barrier in the quest to step another generation back in their history, leapt off on foolish hopes of reading the will. Ha! not to be....
Reading scotmum, I get the impression that I will not find the actual will! But maybe it does not matter, because now I have a strong case for asserting that this John is the parent / sibling of the known resident of the location, one James McAden B 1788 D 1875. Certainly if John passed in 1825, or thereabout, he fits well the statistic of a likely parent of James.
Thanks for your reply.
