John asks about the whereabouts of Probate records in Wakefield. The Registry of Deeds, Newstead Road, Wakefield. You need to book your visit and request the records in advance, and visiting hours are limited. Tel 01924 305983. Website www.archives.wyjs.org.uk. The Registry is within 5 mins walk of the station (Wakefield Westgate). Or about 10 mins from the M1. I can give you directions and parking advice if required. Richard
