Ireland—Calendar of Wills and Administrations, 1858–1920

 Ireland—Calendar of Wills and Administrations, 1858–1920
 Some information has been adde to the project files for this project, as follows, to address issues that have arisen as this project has progressed:
• Do not index entries that are just cross-references.
• Calendar entries often included former places of residence in addition to the county of residence when the person died. Former places of residence were often shown following the phrase "formerly of…." The place of residence at the time of death was often shown with the phrase "late of…." In the Residence County field, you should index only the county of residence when the person died.
• If an individual resided outside of Ireland at the time of death, index what was shown in the calendar entry as the place of residence. If multiple levels of locality were recorded, index all levels, except street addresses, in the order they were recorded, separating each level of locality with a space.

About 300 batches were recalled as they are documents that should not be indexed.  This will prevent the indexers from doing work that does not need to be done.
