1822 Episcopal wills

I smell a rat. There are at least five wills I am seeking that have not been transcribed on Brian Lawson’s wills list but that all have the citation E1 0106423. They are as it tirns out, all in different parishes Bra, Jur, Ger, And, and Mal. So, okay. It’s conceivable that the E1 listing is correct for each one since Episcopal wills tend to be arranged by parish frequently.

I have scoured film 0106423 and in places, it does list defuncts etc which may include the names I am seeking BUT the wills are not on this film. It does stand to reason because all the other films fit on a roll but cover only one year; why on this film is there room for three years, 1821,22,23.

My question. What happened to the LDS filming of the Episcopal wills for 1822 referenced in B. Lawson's index. They sure aren't on film number 0106423? Are they?
