It is very satisfying transcribing wills for one rural parish as you really get to know the families and the bonds between them. However, the most infuriating term is "Cosen", which can mean a number of things!
Also, you become very familiar with the family names and the properties in the parish as they passed through the generations.
Lockdown and the past months have been made a lot more enjoyable for me with a project to focus on as I always need a purpose.
