Hi! Dorothy Thankyou for answering ,I have my fingers crossed re the will dated 1808 of James Bates at Frobury Farm Kingsclere, have sent an e mail to see if I can pay for copies to be sent to me of that and other documents. I can't visit so its my best bet I think.I accessed the documents from the C A L M database.

I feel pursuit of that 2-page Will is essential for continuity in the BATE[S] research. If my line of descent involved them I would not hesitate in purchasing a copy.
