I checked the book "Index to the Probate Inventories of York County PA 1749-1850" by David and Brenda Paul. It lists the following Finleys: Aaron, 1794, Straban Twp * (* indicates now Adams Co) Andrew 1807, Hopewell David, 1799, Chanceford James, 1783, Cumberland * James, 1764, Hamilton Ban * (vendue) John 1782, Chanceford Martha, 1807, Chanceford Michael, 1785, (York Co) William, 1825, Lw. Chanceford There are no listings for Fenley, Findley, or other similar speallings. Hopewell Twp was not formed until 1767, so you may be looking for someone in the Shrewsbury records prior to that date. Good luck. ----- Original Message ----- From: "karen conley" <KARENCONLEY@webtv.net> To: <PAYORK@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, January 04, 2009 12:17 PM Subject: [PAYork] York County Wills >I am trying to locate a wil for a John Finley, born around 1688 and died > around 1760 in Hopewell Twp.
