Thank you Andy Cand , I think that's what I wanted to hear, we have been helping him out for years , shopping etc , neighbors etc , so I think we need to gain access and secure property , here's hoping for a good out come. !!!  Thank you all so much     Dove 

I am desperately hoping someone can help us !!! 

My husbands uncle died just before Christmas , we were close but we are pretty sure he left no will , the police broke in and found him , despite my 84 year old father in law contacting the police several times they won't / can't advise us on how to gain access to his house , we need to look for A: a will and B: an address book, his funeral is booked and panic settlng in !!!    I hope someone can advise us , I am of the opinion that we can gain access and secure the house properly legally ??  Am I wrong ?   

Sorry should have mentioned 84 year old father in law is next of kin , it's a huge emotional drain on him , please help ??


Sorry to keep adding !  Funeral next week !! Would hate not to notify people who he would have wanted to know ,
Any help greatly appreciated   

Hi there,

 I have found an entry for the arrival of a James Burke and a Mrs Burke on December 31 1873 on board the Alexandra,arriving in Melbourne NSW,

 with no first name given for Mrs Burke its hard to determine if they are yours, hope it helps ?

Thank you all  so much for taking the time to help,

 Dawn you have saved me the £6 as I was just about to post request, you have answered my main question about his will, he deserted his family for the woman you mention and I was curious to discover if he made amends by remembering his family, obviously not !!. Thank you once again for all your help.

I am hoping that someone will be able to answer my question , is it possible to obtain a copy of a will from a relative that died in 1952 in Cheshire, if so, how would one go about it ?,

Thanks in advance, Dovely
