Abstracts Of Wiltshire Inquisitions Post Mortem Returned Into The Court Of Chancery PDF Download

Excerpt from Abstracts of Wiltshire Inquisitiones Post Mortem: Returned Into the Court of Chancery Following the directions contained in the writ the escheator or feodary summoned a jury, who in accordance with the evidence placed before them gave their verdict upon oath; the return was engrossed upon parchment, and in due course delivered into the Court of Chancery and there filed. During the inquiry the dealings that the deceased had had with his property came under review, and this necessitated inquiry into family settlements and trusts affecting them, and consequently we often find such docu ments, including wills, are recited very fully, thus affording information of the highest value to the genealogist.
