findmypast.co.uk have the Lichfield wills.
You can view it on there if you have a subscription, otherwise Lichfield wills are now at Stafford Record Office. They used to be at Lichfield Record Office until it closed.
You can send for a copy from them, or visit in person and see, (and photograph), the real thing!
