Hello I have just started doing my family tree again after a break of about 18 months and am interested to know if there is a site online that has wills from 1966 onwards. Sorry if this question has already been answered previously.

Thanks in anticipation

Site here, costs £10 to download, and takes a few days for information to be ready for you.

Thanks for info. Hope I can find the will I'm looking for, although not sure one was made.

Even if a Will WAS made, there will be no record of it if it didn't go to Probate
