From this site?
https://probatesearch.service.gov.uk

Have just checked and been able to find 3 of mine, 1 each from 1929, 1991, 2011

Plenty of Smiths and Carters (common names just to check, come up for 1877!)

Hi there everyone today.

Is it just me or is the site for wills not showing up results. Tried looking for a will for 1877 and comes up 6 pages. But blank? :-D

Thanks
