Thank you
Have another question?

Is there anyway that I can find a will left to my grandmother Ada madeline Venables (nee copley)

Apparantly was featured in "Wills of the Week" in some newspaper
problem I have is that I have no idea who left the will.
but maybe a possible Leonard Hooker if he owned the farm!
