[Smukke]

I hope this is the correct place to post this querry.......... I have been trying to trace my great grandfathers will on ancestry but have noticed that the year 1902 is missing and this is when he died, is there anywhere else i can find out online what his will was

Thanks in advance

hello there
try the national archives go into wills on the home page scroll down to the bottom and click on wills after 1858 in the alphabet list click on w and from that click on wills and probate records this will give you the address to send for copies of wills 

hope this helps sounds complicated but it,s not really !

If he died towards the mid/end of 1902- you may find that his will( if there was one) wasn't proved until 1903(or later) and those years may be in the probate calendar on Ancestry.

Thanks for the advice, I have looked further on and no luck.  Does anyone know why just this particular year 1902 is not on ancestry ?

If you scroll down the main Index search page, under Missing Volumes, they say they are missing books for quite a few years - 1858-1860, 1863, 1868, 1873, 1876, 1877, 1883, 1888, 1899-1903 and 1910-1911. 

They hope to add the records as soon as possible.
