Gilman Wills

This free space page was created to keep a list of the research items needed that should be available on locked/restricted FHL films.

Locked Wills To Obtain

https://nrocatalogue.norfolk.gov.uk/index.php/lincoln-lyncolne-robert-of-hingham Robert Lyncolne of Hingham Vol 9 (Gilior) folio 276 1540. This should be on unlocked film 008004634, but it only goes up to folio 189 and then it's end of roll. Is the rest of the roll on the next film (which is locked). There is a disparity of the probate date in the "Ancestors of Abraham Lincoln" which says 1543.

Locked Wills Not Found In Initial Search

The following wills were not found based on a fairly cursory (10 minute) search. A more thorough search should be carried out before concluding they are not available:
