Wareham

WILLS, ADMINISTRATIONS & INVENTORIES

This index contains an extracted list of persons 'of Wareham' who left wills, letters of administration or inventories to be found with the Probate Registry at Blandford Dorset, Archdeaconry Court of Dorset up to 1793. The names are extracted from indexes found in publications at the Dorset Record Office and elsewhere. Copies of these documents should be available from the Dorset Record Office. Note that this index does not cover the period from the 1790's to 1858. 

Note: this is not a complete list of wills made by Wareham residents. Wills may have been proved in places other than the Archdeaconry Court of Dorset or PCC, for example the Royal Peculiar of Sarum or of Corfe. From 1858 all wills were indexed centrally and this index is widely available at Record Offices, Probate Registries and the LDS.
