PREFACE J t is now more than thirty years since the last list of the

Chester probate records, for the period 1811 to 1820, was published by the Record Society in volumes 78 and 79.

In 1949 all the documents prior to 1858 were removed from the jurisdiction of the Chester Probate Registry and divided into three groups : those relating to Welsh estates were deposited in the National Library of Wales, the Cheshire ones went to the Cheshire Record Office in Chester, and the remainder — by far the largest portion — which related to Lancashire estates, together with the indexes, registers and act books were deposited in the Lancashire Record Office in Preston. All the wills proved and administrations granted in the Chester Court for the period 1821 to 1825 are now listed in this volume in three indexes, baldly described as Lancashire, Cheshire and Welsh, although several documents in each group relate to other parts of the country. To save space, the words parish and county have been omitted, each date has been restricted to year and month, codicils are not indicated, limited administrations are called administrations and admini­strations with will annexed are called wills. Indexes of places and of professions or trades have been provided.

Perhaps the most unusual name in this collection is Robert Skikelthorp of Manchester, while that of Cosmo Gordon of Liverpool, suggests he was an ancestor of a former Archbishop of Canterbury. The numerous references to Saddleworth, a chapelry in Rochdale parish, indicate its importance in the textile world of that time; it is also notable for its wealth of place names. The hazards of a seafaring life are indicated by the large number of mariners' estates and

the many ships that are named. Some of these ships occur repeatedly, e.g. the Ottawa twelve and the Neptune nine times suggesting serious damage or total loss of these vessels.

The editor is indebted to the National Library of Wales for the list of Welsh wills now in its custody, to Major F. G. C. Rowe of the Cheshire Record Office, for the list of Cheshire wills and to Mr. R. Sharpe France, for all facilities required in the compilation of the lists from the original indexes.

This list of probate records is published with the assent of the President of the Probate, Divorce and Admiralty Division of the High Court of Justice.
