    3. If you are near enough to London, the LDS Family History Centre in Exhibition Road has all the PCY films there, so it's possible to use the Origins index and then view and copy your wills from the film at the LDS on demand. That can be really useful if you find a number of candidates in the index and aren't sure which ones you want to copy until you've read them. If you then want to copy them by taking a digital photo direct from the film reader, and the quality is good enough, there's no charge. Otherwise, they will do scans from the film at (I think) 50p a page for printouts or 30p for downloading onto a memory stick. Sorry if this sounds like a big plug for the LDS but it is a very quick and cheap solution if you can get there. >> From: DENISE MORTORFF > Sent: 05 July 2011 23:33 > > What is the specific difference between what is held at the Borthwick > Institute and the ORIGINS Network? Origins has indexes to these wills, the Borthwick has calendars and the original documents together with inventories, bonds etc. associated with the probate. Most, but not all, this material is on LDS microfilm as well.>> Diana Bouglas
