Title: Wills
Post by: katiebee on Monday 07 February 05 01:41 GMT (UK)

Could anyone tell me how I can find out if an ancestor from the 1700s and 1800s made a will?Area would be Haxey or Crowle.  If so how do I go about finding a copy? I am in Canada so can't go to a library or anything. Thanks in advance. Katybee

The will I am looking for is from a John Drewry who died in East Lound in 1834 aged 87. Thanks. Katiebee
