Plymouth & West Devon Record Office Photo Request
« on: Thursday 25 January 18 16:05 GMT (UK) »
I recently contacted the PWDRO to ask for a copy of a will - Document 74/70/10 Will of Thomas Rich of Worthele, Ermington dated 1683. They said this was not possible because the document is on parchment and too frail to copy/scan. But they did say that it could be photographed in the office if I could find someone to do it!
So was just hoping that a regular visitor to the PWDRO, who has a smart phone /Tablet, might be able to spare a little time to photograph this document for me.
Many thanks,
Nigel

Thank you for your reply. I have just received the photograph from some kind lady recommended by the Record Office. So I will mark this as completed!
