David's comment:
"Please be aware that these are not the only wills registered in Ireland,
there are a lot more in the National archives in Dublin and in the records
offices in Belfast for the 6 counties.

The spellings of names & places are exactly as they were typed in the
original books(I have made no changes)
I always recommend that you check the original source for additional
information, remember these are just abstracts & not the actual wills which
are held in the National Archives of Ireland."
