I've had extremely limited results with wills - either amazing (a few) or hopeless (many). I don't think I have ever found a mention of a potential relative in the will of a random person, or if I have it's because the potential relative has a very common name! Most of my relatives seem to ensure they come from areas where it may cost over £10 to see one will, so more time spect contemplating purchasing one document and no chance for me to browse numerous wills.

However, I just looked at the Wilstshire wills index on Ancestry and see there are over 2000 entries for people from the village where some of my relatives may have come from, so that should keep me busy!
