Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book compiles abstracts of wills, primarily from the southeast of England, created during the year 1658. These historical documents provide a unique glimpse into the social and economic conditions of the time, offering insights into the lives and fortunes of ordinary people from this era. The author draws on these wills to explore broader themes such as inheritance patterns, social mobility, and the role of the church, painting a detailed picture of this fascinating period in English history. The wills reveal the diverse range of occupations and social statuses of the testators, from wealthy landowners and merchants to humble laborers and servants. They shed light on the material possessions, family relationships, and religious beliefs of these individuals. Through a close examination of these documents, the author uncovers the social hierarchies and economic disparities that shaped English society during the 17th century. By delving into the personal stories contained in these wills, this book offers a fresh perspective on the lives of ordinary people in the past. It provides a valuable resource for historians and genealogists, but also appeals to anyone interested in the social fabric and human experience of bygone eras. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
