The brilliant Chris Hoban was on local radio talking about the wills project and playing some songs!
This one is perhaps my favourite: based on the will of London widow Alice Walter, proved September 1665. TNA PROB 11/317/428.

Married women didn't usually make wills, but Margery Gadyng did - with her husband's permission. She left bequests of her 'hert’ ‘joie’, & ‘comfort’.

October's will is an unusual & poignant example of a married woman who made a will
Margery Gadyng died in childbirth in 1540 - she declared her will to the midwife & women attending her, leaving them bequests of ribbons & rosaries

Jane's research focuses on global goods in our 25,000 wills - both imported objects and material culture that imitated them.
The cabinets are opened only twice a year - Jane captured this beautiful photograph:
