Hi

Anyone having trouble acessing wills on Kent Arch Soc? https://www.kentarchaeology.org.uk/records/wills-52#09

I am trying to access wils on Medieval and Tudor Kent wills of Ashford, Boxley, Bearsted, Boughton Malherb, Boughton Monchelsea, Challock.

I am unable to access the will contents.

Isn't this a subscription site?

I have accessed other info on this site without a subscription. The Tudor wills used to be on another site which no longer exists unfortunately which was definately free to access.

Their website has been updated and things aren't where they were.

Hi
I was tryning to find the will for Richarde Wodewarde 1516, in Book 52 page 9. I had already printed out the will a while ago (thankfully!), however, I was trying to access the will to create a source for Wikitrees. If the wills are no longer accessible then I cannot cite this website anymore in Wikitrees :(

thanks

Gigi

The will should be there

https://www.kentarchaeology.org.uk/records/wills-52?rq=%09%20richard%20%20wodewarde#09

Book 52
Where the individual page numbers are in blue and underlined, this indicates that the transcription has been added, and by 'clicking' on the 'link' the transcription can be viewed.

However the link does not appear to be working.

I would contact them.
