Zombie


you really should buy the will


all ancestry does is show the synopsis that is printed in the Registry


All you know from this is that widow was granted administration of the will .......................... it does not tell you what it actually says!


Actually, I believe "administration" means that there was no will .......... he died intestate. So she has to administer the estate.


he may well have intended to leave money or chattels to other people ........ which could in fact answer some of the questions you are asking on your other thread!
