Jane Booth Grinsell

[akissling]

I had tried to find the will of Jane Grinsell (nee Booth) born 1629, wife of Humphrey Grinsell and the step daughter of Emery Hill.
Here is her burial record (found in FindMyPast):
20 Mar 1671 Mrs. Jane Grinsell, Burials (Burial), St. Margaret Westminster - Parish Registers, 1666-1699
Her will is referenced in the UK Archives link below because of her charity: https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/cf52b041-5ff5-4d65-9ceb-adb84c6cd2a1 .
I cannot find her will (written in 1670 but again she died in 1671) in the UK Archive collection. My guess is this is probably due to a spelling variation-tried Grinsell and Grimsell. I have also tried the larger genealogy databases without luck. Thanks for any advice!

This book:

states that the bequest took effect in 1675, upon the death of the foundress's husband, to whom the estate was reserved during his lifetime. I am not sure how this would have changed the normal process of proving a will. Perhaps someone on here with more relevant expertise will be able to advise you.

You could always contact the City of Westminster Archives Centre to request a scan of the transcription, but this would obviously incur a charge.
