Some wills are great. And some don't tell you anything at all.
I had been waiting for the Norris will for a while - safe in the knowledge it'd fix a few mysteries for me. Nope. We still have no idea what happened to the nephew that had the papermill in Australia.
This week at exactly midnight - eleven wills dropped into my inbox. I was already asleep (brownie points there), but at 7am you bet I woke up fast. A whole bunch of them were frustrating or just plain brief, but the Edith Taylor will was surely the best of the bunch.
The last known of three siblings - my question was 'who is going to get your money?' Not only does she start me on a hunt for her globe-trotting twin brother, but she throws me a nice chewy bone naming some of her cousins' kids as well.
Of course the price has changed. What I spent in those precious dawn seconds, was what it cost me to get 2 years' worth of wills at one a week, back in the old days. Well, my old copies aren't going anywhere, and aren't telling me much of anything new either.
When it comes to solving tricky family puzzles: 'Will', I definitely still need you.
Disclaimer: I didn't actually go to Italy.
