Odd Wills Describe Pets, Rooms, and Monuments
Odd wills reveal quirky legacies from a man funding his son’s pets after death to a widow’s room kept pristine, a Morrell fortune passing to a missing heir, and a quartet of brothers leaving chairs and a Christmas table to keep an era alive with a collective fund. These artifacts show how generosity, family names, and curiosities shape posthumous wishes.
