    Default Will but no burial?

    While researching some wills I came across the following ...

    Under appendix A of baps/burials 1653 -1723 (BHS publication) is a list of people..
    *Wills of Banbury inhabitants for whom no entry occurs in the burial registers*
    Will 1718 - POTTER Daniel, innholder of the Corporation of Banbury. PCB 49/2/12

    Why is there a Will, but no burial record?

    My guess would be that they either died in a different parish, died in some inconvenient place (ie at sea) or simply disappeared presumed dead
