Thanks Rosie,
I’ve had a quick check for both Charlotte and William but have not found their wills. Not sure that I have looked in the right place but entered the info I had. On the probate it only says with the Will on Charlottes probate.

I tried for Charlotte's entry on the probate site too and failed to find it. I know from experience that the year of probate has sometimes been incorrectly used for the year of death, plus there was a workaround suggested a long time ago relating to inputting the name so the correct image turns up.
https://probatesearch.service.gov.ukUse
just the following in the search boxes:
1st Page
Surname
(HutchingsFirst name
Charlotte Lucy)Year of Death
1925No, not a soldier
SAVE AND CONTINUE
2nd Page
Year of Probate
1925SAVE AND CONTINUE
On the next page scroll to the bottom and click on the image that now shows and at that stage you can use the order form on the right to input the
correct info as it appears on the image and place an order (you'll get copies of both the will and the grant of adminstration, delivered by email) for £1.50
Using the same method to search for William's entry (opening bracket before his surname, closing bracket after his first names and use the year of probate as the year of death) also brings up the correct image so you can use
those correct details to order his document - but in his case there is no will, just a grant of administration
NB its rare to have to go to these lengths, on the whole you just search and get the correct image to be able to complete the order form
