Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Although testamentary evidence has been used to consider numerous important social and cultural issues in early-modern England (household and family size, extended kinship ties, social networks, religious affiliation, literacy rates and so on) the methodological questions of using ‘wills’ have until recently been implicitly and tacitly assumed rather than explicitly addressed. In the spirit of renewed inquiry into the meaning and significance of will-making and survival, an attempt is made here to explain the context of ‘wills’ in the archdeaconry of Leicester between 1522 and 1546 (preparatory to an analysis of religious adherence in this locale during the vicissitudes of the Henrican religious polity).
