Hi Gay
There are will abstracts in Carmarthen record office they give a list of
names and places mentioned......is that the information you need?
The wills were written in old english at that time, the earlier ones are in
latin.......
you could request if one of the archivists would look up the abstract for
you..their email is

Subject: [Cmn-L] 1785 Carmarthenshire Will
I am transcribing a will that was written in 1785 in the parish of
Llanfihangel - Rhos-y-corn. I am having difficulty reading the writing.
The language used in the will appears to be following a form specific to
writing wills. Can anyone tell me where I might find a form that was used
in 1785 for writing wills? Or where I might find a will of that time
period that has been transcribed?
Thank you.
