Just a reminder of this website.
http://www.transcribedwills.co.uk/ There are over 2,700 wills so far. I am trying to upload a few every week. If you use the search facility, it brings up ALL mentions of the word. So you can search for beneficiaries within wills.

Is there anywhere on the site you can just look through the names of the testators without doing a search?

I don't think so, Merry.
However, you could search a county, or a town, and see what wills come up. That would also bring up wills mentioning that county or town.

Merry, would you like me to e-mail the site owner with any suggestions?

lol I found a will with the surname of some of my ancestors from the next door parish and thought it might well be helpful, BUT it's undated! So, now I have to try and see if I'm connected to someone where I have no idea when they were alive!!!

Which county is it? Can you check somewhere to see if there is a date?

The last few lines of the will (which is a PCC one) don't seem to have been transcribed. The date is there on Ancestry.
