Hi,
Have just found out that my sister will be visiting England next month. She is hoping to be able to fill in some blanks on our family that will require her to visit several locations and has no idea where to go or what she might need to do to gain access to documents.  She will be staying in central London and will only be there for a week.
Am hoping that one of you might be able to direct us to the right place and have identified the following interests and sites I saw on the internet.
Wills, Probate, Death Certificates, Voter Lists and other documents (the wills were probated in London, the deaths occurred there also and the residence is located in SE Dulwich )
1. Property ownership-1920 through 1975
    Land Registry, Telford
    Croyden
2. National Archives, Kew
Thought I had this figured out but after further reading of items located at the National Archives, I find that they do not have wills after 1858 nor do they have birth, marriage/death certificates so I am not sure where these might be housed. Not sure if this location would be worth the time for what we are seeking.
3. London Metropolitan Archives
   40 Northampton Road
   Clerkenwell

Specifically looking for:
Home ownership 1920 through 1975
Voter lists after 1970
Death certificate-1975
Probate of wills, 1956, 1962 and 1974

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Daisy,
Thank you for the information.  I think a phone call might be the best option at this time. I do have Ada's record of death as well as my Grandfather's, and my Mother's(half sister of Ada's daughter). Maybe that would help my cause.

With a 6 hr. time difference between our locations, I better get up really early and have a huge pot of coffee ready!!

..... How would you reply to a single individual?

You can use the "quote" function as per Carol's diections, or you can just reply on the thread, and direct your reply to the person, mentioning their name.

You  can also send someone a personal message (PM) which no one else can see. This is generally only used for private conversations, often regarding living people who we are not allowed to mention on the publuc forum. It is not really advisable to use PMs for topics that are being discussed on the boards as well, because it is impossible to keep track of replies given by others and it can all get a bit messy. 

"it is impossible to keep track of replies" that's where I am right now. Probably will embarrass myself when I see this Appreciate your help.  So much to learn, so little time.

Thanks to everyone for all the good advise. Felt a little stupid that I was so challenged but seeing that I saw something that others have  about made me feel good.

Brings up another question. When you reply either by Reply, which I am using now, or Quick Reply, I think the message is just attached under the last response received. How would you reply to a single individual?

Gotta go shopping for a turkey for Thanksgiving and am thankful that I have met so many caring, sharing folks in the past few weeks.
