Robert, I enter wills as an event, actually two events: Will Dated and Will Probated. The transcription of the will goes in the notes field for the Will Dated event. I rarely bother to scan wills.
I use Will Dated and Will Probated events because I have several individuals in my family file for whom I do not have death dates. For example I know my 3rd great-grandfather John Lyall, died between 3 Nov 1852 and 1 Jan 1853, because those are the dates his write his will and when it was entered for probate. He must have died in that two month period.
