I have found a will of my dead aunt (spinster) after 2 years who has nominated her elder sister (also deceased) before her as heir , but on a plain paper with signed witnesses (parish priest and family doctor), Can this document be found legal and press for legality of the said property (under landlord), as I am her niece who was tending to her needs (monetary).

A.Hi,
There is no specified format in which a will is to be made. It could be drawn upon a plain sheet of paper and handwritten by the testator and signing of the witnesses.
