Remember to check what years the RO offices go up to with the probate calendar. |

What years are you talking about? If its after 1858 the national archives online wont have it you will need to apply for a probate search This is the form and the instructions are at the bottom of the form. http://www.hmcourts-service.gov.uk/HMCSCourtFinder/GetForms.do?court_forms_category=probate York is taking about 6 weeks to do a search at the moment, but if the search you are after is after 1955 then Cardiff probate is taking about a week I have been informed. Probate Registry of Wales P.O. Box 474 2 Park Street Cardiff South Wales CF10 1TB Wales 029 2037 6479 It costs £5 for a standard four year search even if they dont find anything. However, if you would rather check beforehand if your ancestor left a will you can have a look at the national probate calendar which is available at larger record offices. These do hold it: http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/Probate.html |

Sue is it a Lincolnshire death? The archives at Lincoln have the probate calender as most records offices do, could take a look next time I go for you. As for wills online, I cannot find mine on the nationalarchives site either, but I know they exist, I have copies. |

If your ancestor left a will would it tell you on the above website. It's just that every name I put in nothing comes up maybe mine were a poor old lot or they are not coming up maybe not complete |
