« on: Thursday 10 March 22 04:45 GMT (UK) »
I note there is a probate record for Eliza Campbell died Chichester Sussex 30 Sept 1908 with probate date as 8 Dec 1908 London on An....  Trying to pick it up on probate search but not showing up under date or spelling of surname? Can I ask for clarification help. Regards

It's on the National Archives site.
Eliza Campbell of North Mundham House

Whoever revamped the Probate site needs to learn how to spell.  I put in a search for Roberts plus year (pre 1996).  It returned 46 pages.  Not unusual given it's a common surname.

First page - Robertshaw
2nd - Roberts but christian names starting W & then Robertshaw again on same page
Pages 3 - 8 - Robertson
Page 9 - Roberts but with christian names beginning with R
Page 10 - Roberts - christian names beginning B
Next page - threw me back to the search page!!
