Hi
Using the Norfolk Record Office catalogue, NROCAT, to see if there is a will, and for references
Dyball, Thomas, of Scottow
ANW, will register, 1812-1813, (1812) fo. 34, no. 25
On the FamilySearch catalogue
Place - England, Norfolk
That brings up a long list of categories. Select Probate records (21 of them)
From the probate records, click on
Wills and administrations, 1469-1857
Author: Church of England. Archdeaconry of Norwich
There are two pages of films, we need the second page
And on that, the film we want is
Regd. copy wills, v. 129 1812-1813
Click on camera icon, and start browsing!
We need folio 34 and as it the will is proved in 1812, it's going to be early on in the film.
Image 39 has folio 34, but T Dyball isn't on that page, and we find him on the next page, as you have seen.
Helpfully the wills are numbered, and his is no. 25, as per the NROCAT result.
You can also see wills for the Norwich Consistory Court at home, but not the Archdeaconry of Norfolk (barring a few films)
I should also say that Norfolk wills, 1800-1857, are on Norfolk Sources
http://www.norfolksources.norfolk.gov.uk/DserveNS/
Though Thomas Dyball isn't showing! He ought to be there somewhere? A bonus is that you can see Archdeaconry of Norfolk wills proved from 1800-57 on there.

Hi Southwinds,
Wondered if you would share how you found these wills on family search.
I can obtain access by using the film number on the connection you gave, but what terminology did you use in the Catalogue search?
Your help would be appreciated.

A few other items from newspapers that may be of interest:
Also Thomas (the younger) DYBALL of Scottow mentioned in a couple of advertisments for viewing an estate in Horstead in 1795. eg
Saturday, Apr. 4, 1795, Norfolk Chronicle

Various other advertisments and mentions during the early 1800s if you're interested.
Where are you getting his death date from please?
I don't see a death 1856 on Freebmd for a William Scottow age 78
There is a William Dyball age 55 of Norwich buried in Scottow 16 October 1831
If I have the correct one did he marry Elizabeth Cooke and then Sarah Cooper?
Born 20 April 1778 baptized 28th April.Scottow
Then he is the son of Thomas Dyball of Scottow who married Elizabeth Ayers by license 18 November 1764 at Barton Turf. Witness Thomas Dove and Joseph Ames (Joseph signs a lot so he is probably the parish clerk). All could write.
