Hi Dom,
  I'm afraid the probate packet is very disappointing .... most disappointing I've ever seen  :(.

  There wasn't a will and he died intestate.  The "probate" packet contains statements from the children stating let Mum have it while she's alive (or similar).

  Give me a while to upload, rotate and share the photos and then I'll send you a link.

regards,
   Ros

Bummer!   ::)

This man seems to have arrived out of nowhere, stayed out of the newspapers and quietly shuffled off again.

Ros, you are doing a great job with these look-ups  :)

I totally agree with Judith .....  Bummer, and of course with the grand job that Ros does.   

Well Done, Ros.

And for that you have my eternal gratitude  ;)

Seriously though - thank you very much for doing the look-up and sending through the photos! No, it might not have given me what I wanted but its all grist to the mill and everyone loves a good mystery! Onward and upward and back with the thinking caps for Mr. H. His baptism at least must exist somewhere - and it may just not be online at the moment so I might have to get my butt to the Gloucestershire Record Office (luckily the Wiltshire Record Office is only a short drive away from where I live) and start trawling through PRs and BTs myself! Of course - I am assuming that he comes from my side of the country!

Once again thank you to everybody else who has contributed!  ;D

I'll let you guys know if I find anything new ...
