Excerpt from Lincoln Wills, Vol. 1: Registered in the District Probate Registry at Lincoln; A. D. 1271 to A. D. 1526 T is the intention of the lincoln record society to issue a series I of volumes containing abstracts of wills relating to the diocese and county of Lincoln. These ancient testamentary documents are of value because they throw much light upon the language, the religious customs and Observances, and the manners and social life Of our forefathers. Moreover, they are Of very great service for genealogical purposes since, in the period prior to the institution Of parish registers, they are Often the only available source of information relating to families which did not hold land or use armorial bearings and even when they relate to the same period as extant parish registers, they are no less important to the genealogist, for experience proves that, while it is generally impossible to compile a pedigree from either wills or parish registers alone, it is generally easy to do so when both these classes of records are available. In 1888 the late Mr. Alfred Gibbons, edited a volume Of Early Lincoln Wills an abstract of all the wills and administrations recorded in the Episcopal Registers of the old Diocese of Lincoln, 1280 - 1547. The volume is full of interest, though some names, and also many details which are important as illustrating ancient manners and customs, have been omitted.
