Sent for 3 Will's under 3 weeks a go, was told expect to wait up to 6 weeks for there return. Got them back this morning Great. Wonted to let you know that I had 2 small envelopes 1 big. Opened the small ones first, was told no will's for 2 of the people requested was disappointed. When i opened the large envelope there was 2 Wills one of them was for the person they said they couldn't find I was very pleased but doesn't say much for there admin. Department. I got a new name from both of them, one was for a child born to a spinster aunt I was so excited, the other was for a grand child. I have the bug now for Will's and am off to Holborn This week to find as many as Possible. Diane.

I think they seem to tell all of us up to 6 weeks to cover any delay - mine turned up less than 3 weeks after I ordered. Dont forget you can download some from the National Archive documents on line for £3.50 (SOME wills up to 1858)
