Any wills?

You sometimes find final requests to be buried or cremated at a certain place or even that their body be used for medical research

You do get sent the will with Administration with wills and an explanation on the grant.

A recent example of mine was a will where no executors had been specified.

Hi
After juggling with the entries at BMD, I think she is Sarah Harman, her marriage listed
Brighton 2b 412..........Francis at
Brighton 2b 422.
Probably an indexing mistake.

If you compare Sarah Harman in the 1891 cansus(Brighton) to the later censuses, it looks more than likely. Something to go on, anyway.

The Marriage Locator site has the 422 entry as Brighton St Peter

I don't know whether it's still the case, but, as Chancery documents are/were stored offsite, you need to order the documents a week in advance.

Hi

From a quick look at one of your previous posts, you have access to FindMyPast

If you search the Military section with soldier number 40939 you'll find a listing from the Intl Red Cross with your chap.

I don't know whether there's other info not online but I'm sure others will know

Standish documents seem to be at Lancashire Archives but it'll be a job to plough through the catalogue to find anything that might be of interest

If you search Queen's Court Vine on LMA, you get entries for the Minories Improvement Scheme which fits in with St Botolph Without
