Anyone a member of this? I know that I am and the free period of searching is over. They have just added the 'Index for Wills and Administrations for The Court of Probate 1886 to the current online archive. You can now view indexes of English and Welsh Wills and Administrations from 1796 to 1886.' I don't have an credits to search. Can anyone help? Steve

Thankyou. I will ask no more of you. I knew that lookup and searching that index would prove negative. If only I understood the index and searching better to maximise results Steve
