Thomas Reeve Thornton's will, 1862
« on: Wednesday 15 November 17 16:35 GMT (UK) »
Thomas Reeve Thornton of Brockhall House, Brockhall died on 25 January 1862.

I've found the probate for his will, with probate date of 18 March 1862.

I'm not familiar with the Northamptonshire records, does anyone know if his will can be viewed on-line?

Have a look at this site, I really don't know how much a will is to purchase now, last time I ordered one it was £5

There was a double probate entry for this man  1881 leaving £45,000

Information on Ancestry for both dates but to get the original you might have to purchase a cert
