	May I ask if wills may be ordered online? I can sit for hours, searching the internet for information of my brickwall ancestors. However, when it comes to reading directions on how to order something on a website, I get so frustrated! I am very interested in obtaining a copy of a will from 1846. Would anyone know please if someone living in California may order a copy of a will from ERO, via the internet? Thank you.

	Thank you very much Joy. I will try an email. As well as one will, I may have found my ancestor's property on an auctioneer's notebook. Thank you for your suggestion.
