Could I point out that the index of testaments/wills on the Scottish Documents site is still far from complete. For example, Argyll is not yet represented. I understand from the SCAN project, which is doing the work, that it is intended also that the fairly primitive search facility will be considerably improved when all the indexes come on line in the near future and will certainly have proper references to the registers themselves which they do not have at the moment. However one of the plus points at the moment is that the site does provide an index to the testaments in Edinburgh Commissary Court which was the head Commissary Court in Scotland and which records testaments from actross the whole country as well as recording testaments of Scots people who died outside Scotland. What this index will eventually do is give access to the new digitised images of the testaments which are an enormous improvement on the present microfilm. it will also, hopefully, provide in the future an accurate index to the testaments of the Commissary Court of Argyll for the 17th century, which does not exist at the moment. I would also remind people that the registers of testaments are only a part of the records of the Commissary Courts (the courts which in Scotland dealt with testaments and executries until 1823) in the National Archives of Scotland in Edinburgh.
