    1. [DBY] Finding a copy of a will
    2. Mrs Watson
    3. Hello I have found a record of a will for William Naylor, died 1899 in Derbyshire. I am not sure if this is my great great grandfather as of yet, but how would I go about finding a copy of his will? Many thanks

    3. Hello Mrs Watson (thats a bit formal isn't it? <vbg>) Assuming its a Derbyshire event, the only one I see in the Probate Calendars is :- Probate Calendars 1899 (Ancestry) NAYLOR William of Bakewell Derbyshire publican died 29 January 1899 Administration Derby 27 March to Jane Naylor widow Effects £115 16s The crucial word is "Administration" which tells you there is no will and he died intestate, the letters of administration are unlikely to tell you any more than you already know I am afraid Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 03/12/2012 21:47, Mrs Watson wrote: > Hello > I have found a record of a will for William Naylor, died 1899 in Derbyshire. > I am not sure if this is my great great grandfather as of yet, but how would I go about finding a copy of his will? > Many thanks >
