Sažetak

On the basis of preserved original wills and transcripts of wills, which can be found within the holdings of the City Government of the Free and Royal City of Osijek, this paper analyses wills, testators and testamentary legacies in unpublished wills of the Osijek population. The analysis comprises 86 wills written in Croatian in the period from 1809 and 1850. The focal point of the paper is the review of wills as source materials within the holdings of the City Government of the Free and Royal City of Osijek, the review of the structure of Osijek wills, the analysis of the numerical relation between male and female testators as well as the characteristics of the testators. As concerns the testamentary legacies, a list of those most represented in the wills is given, such as financial donations, real estate and material things.
