Hampshire Record Office list a 'registered copy' in their catalogue, but I suspect that your best way forward is to order it (£5 for a copy) from the Probate Service.  It takes up to three weeks, unless you can visit London:

http://www.hmcourts-service.gov.uk/infoabout/civil/probate/index.htm

There is a better link, but I can't get the page to load at the moment - the above is the 'front page' for probate and includes links to services, how to apply, fees and the form you need to complete and send off.

Hi I have received kezia's death cert and on it is stated her age of 104 and her cause of death as natural decay !!! she was registered by frances Jenkins and the place where she died as Gurnard ,Northwood.The cemetery records for Northwood go back to 1865 but there is no record of her burial there . would burial records for her be at the newport Records office .by the way its seems to be the right one as she is recorded as the widow of James Jenkins (Farmer) which would be the one who had Dukes Farm in Rew Street.

It is possible that she is buried at Gurnard.  IOW Record Office holds the cemetery records and there is an index.  An enquiry to them would be the best idea.
