Copy of Will

[PatsyAlice]

Can any one give me any advice on how to get a post 1858 copy of a will. I have found all the details on Ancestry: https://www.ancestry.co.uk/search/categ ... ty=english I have entered all the details on the Gov.uk site only to be told there is nothing. Are all the wills on this site?
Thanks for any help

The probate for Nimrod Knight is on the probatesearch.service.gov.uk website. It was proved in 1864.

Thank you - why can't I find that? I will try again!

[PatsyAlice]

I am obviously doing something completely wrong as I still cannot get it to come up.

Are you on this website?

[PatsyAlice]

I am indeed - I cannot understand it. I have all the details from the Ancestry website - I have tried different permutations working on the principal of sometimes less is more and I still cannot get it!

I haven't created an account - does that make a difference?

[Sheila]

I wouldn't have thought having an account should make a difference. I do have an account so can't be sure.
I used the info you found on Ancestry. There was no result for 1863 so I moved on one year and it was there in 1864.

Perhaps go out of the site and start again?

[PatsyAlice]

Thank you for your patience Sheila. I have created an account - no difference. I have been in and out like a yoyo. I will give it one more go!

Thank you thank you. It has come up. I was beginning to lose the will (haha) to live!
