Probate

Post by Orinda »

Would someone be able to give me the link to order a copy of a probate will, if the person lived in
Atherton. Which district would hold the record?

Thank you

If they died after 1858, it can be purchased online:

If before 1858 it might be worth enquiring for a price with the Lancashire Record Office who may send you a photocopy by email. http://www.lancashire.gov.uk/libraries- ... n=Shorturl
