Clonfert wills and administrations online

From FindmyPast Ireland (www.findmypast.ie):

Good news for those of you whose Irish family history roots stretch to Galway, Roscommon or Offaly, today we launched the Clonfert wills, administrations and marriage records covering the period from 1663-1857. They are extremely useful for those researching their Irish family history with ancestors from the east of Co.Galway, parts of Co.Roscommon and a small section of Co. Offaly on the east bank of the River Shannon. You can see a full list of the 38 civil parishes covered on the record information page. The original bonds were destroyed in the Public Record Office fire of 1922, consequently all that survives is the index.
