Hi, I noticed this link in my family history mag: www.derbyshire.gov.uk/leisure/record_office/our_collection/derbyshirewills Has anyone already used the wills index for ordering a will? If so, was it any good and how much was it...if you don't mind me asking! Thanks, Karen

I got a will from Derbyshire Records Office, it cost me about £3.50 if I remember rightly and was very interesting! It came about 4 days after ordering as well. Sam x
