    3. I just received copies of both wills for James Arnold born ca 1801/2 in Wiltshire.  Although there are ten pages of legal writtings in these documents which is repeated over and over the only redeemable genealogy information is that his wife's name was Mary Arnold and she is a co executor of the will along with some trustees.   Where would I find the distribution of the estate?  or any other documents relating to the content of the estate and who received what?    In USA this information is part of the estate settlement.  Is there such a thing in England?   Since there is nothing in the will to help me then my next step would be to order parish records from some group in Wiltshire to continue my research?   thank you in advance for your assistance with these questions   Sharon M.
