Gloucestershire Will 1878
« on: Tuesday 04 August 15 02:44 BST (UK) »
I am trying to obtain a copy of a Gloucestershire Will of 1878 but Wills via the National Archives Records only seem to go to 1858.  I have a record of the Probate but would really like to see the Will.
Can anyone tell me where I can get this please.

There is a tab of 1858 to 1996:

https://probatesearch.service.gov.uk/#wills

you then need to pay for the will.

Hi Mary,
I shall be visiting Glos Archives (GA) this morning and will check to see what years are held by GA.

Many thanks. I have tried the 'probates' link but no luck.

Victor - I would appreciate you checking.  It was for John Heiron died 1878 probate 1879.

Regards

Just tried the link, he is showing there (probate 3rd February, died 28 November)  and I proceeded to check out with no problems, £10 to download- takes up to 10 working days.

I have found it now but it is just the Probate, which I have seen on Ancestry.  It is the actual Will I was hoping to get.

The papers are held by HMCTS, you pay them the £10 via the website chempat posted and they will send you a copy the grant and will by email as a pdf.

Hi Mary,
Microfiche records for Gloucestershire Wills are only available up to 1835 at Glos Archives (GA). However, I am informed that these records are available on A******y.
I would be prepared to print, from A******y for you and post you the results. There would be a charge, by GA, for printing of £2 per A4 page.
