    1. [LON] Copy wills from National Archives
    2. John Stevens
    3. Does anyone have experience of obtaining a copy of a pre-1858 will from this source please? Following on from the recent posts about obtaining copy wills I did a search on the TNA website and was delighted to find an ancestor's will there dating from 1838. Having duly parted with my hard-earned cash and downloaded the image I am rather frustrated to find that what I have is a beautifully hand-written copy of the will in an identical hand to the quite unrelated wills before and after it. Any ideas please on how I might get to see the original document in my ancestor's own fair hand? Thanks John
