well if he died in Huntingdonshire that should be where the death was registered

He died in Upwood, Huntingdonshire but looks like his will was registered in London. Found it on Ancestry. Looks like it will cost £5.00 but not sure where to apply. Might try to phone Hunts Record Office on Monday.

you can buy anyone's will if you are able to give name, date of death and location - local registrar in the area of death would be the place to try

I have found my gt. grandfather left a will. His name is David Thompson, from Upwood, Huntingdonshire. He died 24.9.1910. Administration was London. How do I go about getting a copy, please.
