(edits to add about database)
About London, England, Wills and Probate, 1525-1858
This database contains wills dating from 1523 to 1857 held by the London Metropolitan Archives. These are original wills only and do not include wills or administrations found in will registers or act books which are accessible on site at the London Metropolitan Archives. These do not include wills proved in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury.

If I was you I would either telephone or write to the London probate office and see what they say.
They should be able to tell you how you can get hold of a copy of the record and how much it would cost

Have had a look but can`t make sense of it....The record is not available on The National Archives site....but the fact it is in an index must mean its held somewhere surely?



Nicky

Have you checked their website, to see what info they give about the availability of records?
