wills

[granny grump]

is it possible to get a copy of someone's will?

[Barmaid]

Yes, after death. If it has gone through Probate, you write to the York Sub Probate Registry, which I think is at Duncombe Place, enclosing a cheque for �5 to HMPG with details of the deceased and they will send you a copy.

If it has not been through probate, you can ask the executors, but they are not obliged to give you a copy.

Brilliant - thankyou barmaid

Just to fill in a few gaps in Barmaid's post, and to correct the payee for cheques (= 'HMCS'), see here:
