13148 John Herrick 17 May 1742 Wenham yeoman testate

Thanks for posting this site! I have never seen it before and was able to
cut and paste all the Haseltine listings as well as Hoag and Hazzen. I can
hardly wait to go through looking for other family. Almost all of Mom's
ancestors started out in Essex County.

Now, where would one find any of the actual probates? I assume that one has
to pay for same, so I would have to be very selective as to which I would
get.
