Anyone looking for a will 1900-1936 or 1948-1959?
« on: Thursday 28 April 11 21:21 BST (UK) »
On Saturday I am going to check the Register of Confirmations for a fellow Rootschatter. This tells you if someone died testate, where any will is to be found, who the executors were, the value of the estate left and sometimes other odds and ends.

If anyone wants me to check an entry, let me know and I'll try to do it. You will have to give me the name and date of death. Another detail, such as place of death or spouse's name would be useful too.

Graham.
