I would like to look at the will of Josiah Dean, who died in 1808 at Lathom.  I have found it in Xmission,but I have forgotten what to do next.  I treir Family Search, but can only find the Irish ones.  Any help please

It is a Supra will (Cheshire I think)

Ancestry has the details but not the image. 

Text: Dean, Josiah, of Lathom, farmer 14 Nov 1808
Volume: List of Wills and Administrations (Including the Infra Wills), Now Preserved in the Probate Registry at Chester. For the Years 1801-1810, Both Inclusive.
Collection: Cheshire: - Wills and Inventories, 1801-1810 (A-L)

Thanks Blue.  That must have taken you ages to find.  I have ordered the original, but got mixed up between Liverpool and Lancashire....  Silly me.  That is definitely the correct family with his daughter Sarah marrying Henry Manchester.  Brilliant  I am also so glad Margaret got the bedstead !!

Thanks again Lynne..  ps  I am off to IOM in June for my hols.
