Keep checking the above site for progress on the Wiltshire Wills project. It is anticipated that the catalogue will be online by the end of 2006. Although the site no longer provides full details of the number of courts covered, I think I read that there were 27 different courts to be searched for a will. Certainly the searchroom had innumerable maroon volumes you had to wade through. This project has been going for several years now and plans ultimately to make digital copies available online, like TNA does for PCC wills, which will be brilliant!
