Hi Ellen,

I found the following Administration:

ADMINS:
Last Name First Name Number Date Box #
DAVIS William 717 6 Nov 1822 23

This index gives nothing more than the deceased person's name,
the date the admin. was filed & the number of the admin. & what box
it is stored in.

You can now contact or go to the Registry of Wills Office at the
Delaware Co. Court House in Media, PA. Ask to see or get a copy of
this "Will or Administration," & give them the above info. I think the
cost is about $2.00 per page.

Happy Holiday's, Helen

<< Helen,

Thank you so much for the offer! I'm looking for the will of a William
Davis. Bad name to ask for, I know. BUT his wife's name would have been
Margaret or Rebecca and his son's name was John Ward Davis. I suspect his
wife was already gone before he died but am not positive.

Thanks again,
Ellen Ward
