Anybody got anything they want looked up on the National Probate Calendar 1858 - 1968? It will tell you whether somebody left a will, and if so where they lived and who the executors of their will were, and how much money they left. You will have to give me their name and the year they died and any other details that might help like the date of death if you have it, place of death, names of relatives, etc. I'm not planning another trip for a while, so no more requests please!

Please can you look for John Edward Palfreyman born 1865 in Birkenhead and died after 1902 probably in the same place . He was a sailor in his youth but may have had the family jewellery business by then. His wife was Margaret and he had a daughter Winifred. Thanks.

Just to let you know if you go to the probate office it is in the Crown Court you can look at the wills and if you want to order it costs £5
