Wills and Inventories at Chester is a historical book published in 1884 by G.J. Piccope. The book is a compilation of wills and inventories from the city of Chester, England, dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries. The wills and inventories were transcribed from original documents held in the Chester archives and provide valuable insights into the lives of the people of Chester during this time. The book is divided into two parts. The first part contains transcriptions of wills and inventories, which are organized alphabetically by the testator's surname. The wills and inventories provide information on the testator's possessions, debts, and bequests to family members and friends. They also reveal details about the testator's occupation, social status, and religious beliefs. The second part of the book is an appendix that contains abstracts of wills that are now lost or destroyed. These abstracts were compiled from various sources, including other historical books and manuscripts. The abstracts provide a glimpse into the wills that have been lost and offer some information about the testators and their possessions. Overall, Wills and Inventories at Chester is a valuable resource for historians, genealogists, and anyone interested in the history of Chester. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into the lives of the people who lived in the city during the 16th and 17th centuries and sheds light on the social, economic, and religious conditions of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
