1711 Will of John Brasier (Seaman) of Margate

I'm trying to find the Will / Probate of John Brasier (Seaman) of Margate.

The best I can find is the 1711 index card here on Findmypast:

Have you asked the Kent Records Office?

Searched kentarchives.org.uk, wills.canterbury-cathedral.org, and discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk with no luck.

I thought I would ask here at Rootschat first - in case I"ve missed something

Not everything is indexed and on line.
What you found is an index card.
Hence my question have you asked Kent Records Office.
Send them an email

Whatever they have is in the Kent Archives in Maidstone (https://www.kentarchives.org.uk/collections/getrecord/GB51_DCb_PRC_11). The index card has the reference PRC/11/70/151. PRC/11/ is the inventories (records) of the Canterbury Archdeaconry Court, and the /70/ bit refers to the years 1710-1711. Obviously the /151 relates to whatever they hold for John Brasier. As Amondg says, whatever is in the record hasn't been digitised yet and so you will either have to visit the archives or pay for them to send you a scan.

All good - Thank you for the explanation on the card numbing.

I already have a few other scans ready to purchase. I'll include this one too.
