	Suffolk wills prior to 1858 were most often proved at Canterbury and the wills are at the National Archive. Ancestry now has them available to view on their site. Ancestry also has the probate calendars for wills proven between 1856 and 1966 but the calendar only shows the basic details not the will itself.
	Researching: Don't put off until tomorrow doing what you can do today. If you like doing it today you can do it again tomorrow. Be kind to your children for it is they who will decide which care home you end up in.

	If you Google, there are several hits - one of which is this site - you will find it under the Births, marriages, etc heading.
