The Common Room / Re: Help finding will / probate please

Thank you Antony for taking the time to reply.  I think that everything was automatically left to the next of kin (i.e. from wife to husband) without the need for a will or therefore, as you have said the need for probate.  I am sure that the house involved was also held in joint ownership.  Thank you again for your help.

Thank you in advance for any expertise, wisdom or advice that can be given.
I usually don't have a problem finding a will or probate but I have come up short with this one.
I am looking for the will or probate of Ann Carol Harris but cannot find it.  Ann died April 7th 2003 in Neath, South Wales.  She was born in November 1946 in Denbigh, North Wales (maiden name Eustace).
I have used: probatesearch.service.gov.uk which I usually use but have not had any success.
My understanding was that even if there wasn't a will, there would be a record of the grant of probate?

Thank you again for any help that can be given.

Well spotted Jen B - interesting observation!

I may have to wait a bit as "There will be a restricted Enquiries Service for an unspecified period due to the uncertainty caused by COVID-19. We will attempt to answer all enquiries if practically possible and hope to return to a full service soon."

Thank you for everyone's help so far - it is very much appreciated.  As my OP mentioned, it is the original newspaper article that I am trying to find.  I have included attached details about my Nan:

The Common Room / Help finding newspaper article from handwritten note order of service.

Good afternoon and thank you for any help that can be given.  i have attached an extract from my maternal grandmother's (My mum's mum)order of service which mentions a family story about how good a singer my Nan was and the opportunities she was unable to take.

It is also seems to imply that the original article can be found in the February 1937 Daily Mirror but despite many hours and days of searching I keep drawing a blank.

I would be grateful if there is a miracle worker out there who is able to find this original newspaper article please?

Many thanks,

Nic

Thank you - seems to be the right family but alas no residence description around the time in question.
