GRO Wills
« on: Tuesday 23 August 22 16:24 BST (UK) »
Some time ago, I could access Wills on a site Find a Will, I think they were on the GRO.
Any help please.

Thanks

There have been problems with this site since they supposedly updated it.  There is a lengthy post on rootschat about it

Thanks to you both for your replies and the link to 'problems'

Why is it necessary to 'update' when it's not needed.

At least I know it's not me doing something wrong.

We wait.
