Nuncupative will

[Kit]

Does anyone know what this is?

I found it on SEAX. After reading Elizabeth's thread I was having a look for wills for OH's rellies in Essex, I didn't find any as they were too poor, I think, but did see some Nuncupative wills. I can't have a look as I don't have a sub and didn't want to waste money looking at a random will.

I think it is a death bed will, usually verbal.

Thanks Maggie and Elizabeth. There were a reasonable amount of them on SEAX.
