I have just loaded a few Antrim will abstracts to my Antrim page. For the most part, it's only will abstracts that anyone can obtain before 1904 - though, there are a lot of deeds and wills remaining that had been lodged with the Registry office. Wills - people wrote a will even if they only had £5 at times - there's many of those - but it's in reading the abstracts that you can find all kinds of other bits of information - the illusive place name, the illusive variation on the spelling of a name. People mention their relations who live in other counties in wills and they mention servants at times. Abstracts can be interesting........sometimes they aren't lodged or probated until 20 years after the persons death, sometimes you can find a whole load of them covering a large time frame all being dealt with by the executors of one person's will.............in one year............evven when it's only a few words, if you're lucky and this happens you can tie in a few families together. http://www.from-ireland.net/contents/antrimcont.htm A search engine has also been added to the site - there's a link to it at the top of the Antrim page. All surnames, names and placenames on the From Ireland web site are as they were spelled in whatever document and these can all have variations - the names I mean, using a search engine for a particular spelling will throw up pages that the word is spelled that way on but not those with any variations.
