25 August 2013 I blogged the total number of wills that I still have remaining to be transcribed. I am going to do an update just to remind me of wills that I have promised to do over time and the remaining Blake wills that I am hoping to complete by the end of the year.
Blake 486 (includes 7 only for which no place is indicated)
Abbs 1
King 17
Kingdon 1
Kip 3
Locke 7
Burges 1
Butt 1
Carter 3
Chorley-Churley-Charley 15
Coffin 3
Kent 10
Knight 2
Lambden 5
Lywood 4
Millin 3
Moggeridge-Modridg-Moggridge 12
Question 3
Quirke 1
Rawlings-Rawlins 12
Robson 2
Rolles 3
Routledge 5
Rowcliffe 6
Siderfin 3
Snowe 5
Tapp 1
Thomas 3
Upcott 3
Vicary 6
I have since then acquired a number of new wills including:
Blake at Record Offices not PCC which all the above Blake are
namely from Dorset, Hampshire, London, Westminster, Gloucestershire Record Offices
482 wills
Family Search I still have 21 wills to transcribe
Total number of wills is an amazing number: 1109 wills
A busy job ahead for me still but I remain dedicated to complete all the Blake wills that I am able to transcribe but with summer coming on I can see my time will be shortened somewhat as I have a couple of other projects that I want to complete so finishing by the end of December for the PCC wills might work but definitely not for all the new wills that I have acquired.
This Blog will talk about researching my English ancestors from Canada but also the ancestors of our son in law whose families stretch back far into Colonial French Canada. My one name study of Blake and of Pincombe also dominate my blog these days. I published the update and revision of The Siderfin Family of West Somerset and it can be downloaded using - http://www.kipp-blake-families.ca/The Siderfin Family of West Somerset - Elizabeth Kipp 4600.pdf

Thank you Elizabeth on your comment regarding Mogridge Wills - I look forward to reading them. I can see you have a mammoth task with the number of wills you have to do. You may also like to know I totally agreed with your blog post on 'Sensationalism used as a means of selling books'. Although I feel any information I have found should be shared for the benefit of others - I detest those people that take the information, without thanks or acknowledgement, and claim it as their own! Keep up the good work.
