You need to look in the National Probate Calendar; you can check that at any Probate office and probably at your nearest County Record Office or LDS Family History Centre. Alternatively the York Probate office will do a search for you.

You will find more information about probate and getting a copy of the will or grant of administration here:

and here's a link to a downloadable form to request a search and/or copy of a will

Good luck
