WW1 Irish soldiers wills database updated

In addition to the new census records that have gone online at the National Archives of Ireland website (see http://britishgenes.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/irish-census-search-forms-1841-and-1851.html), the Soldiers' Wills database for the First World War has also been updated to carry records from 1917-1918, meaning the collection now comprises wills from 1914-1918.
