Everett (General)

Would anybody be able to tell how I find out if there has been a will left by an individual and how I can obtain a copy. The person being a man by the name of Thomas Everett, born about 1824 Awre/Blakeney. I am hoping to solve a longstanding family mystery!

You can find information on wills where probate was granted later than 1 January 1858 at the Court Service website (www.courtservice.gov.uk). They have a section on Probate Records and Family History. Copies of the index to wills from 1858 to 1943 are available on microfiche at The National Archives and the Family Records Centre.

The National Library of Wales holds volumes of copy wills after 1858, up to 1940.

Thankyou so much Slowhands. This one is causing me a lot of trouble, I am struggling to find out when he died in order to get the will. I'll have to keep plugging away at it.
Regards,
Sandra

All "we" know is he died after 1901

I guess you have two choices if yo are sure a will exists.

a/ submit a postal request based on period 1901 / 04, then 1904/08, 1909/1912 etc

b/ use 1837online or local family history centre to search BMD's to find his quarter of Death, probably in Westbury on Severn

then

"...
In many cases you can save a lot of time and money by making the search yourself, but there is a postal service by which a search is made on your behalf for a period of four years. There is a fee of £5 for this, but this includes copies of the Will and/or grant if a record is found. It also gives you the benefit of the experience of Probate staff, for instance in knowing when to search and judging under which name the record is likely to be listed. If you want the Probate Registry to conduct a search for a period longer than the standard four years, there is an additional fee of £3 for each 4-year period after the first four. Thus, an 8-year search will cost £8, a 12-year search £11, and so on.


If you want to make a postal search, contact:

The Postal Searches and Copies Department
The Probate Registry
1st Floor
Castle Chambers
Clifford Street
York YO1 9RG

Tel: +44 (1904) 666777
Fax: +44 (1904) 666776

Applications for searches must be made in writing, and give the full name, last known address and date of death of the person concerned. A search can normally be made using less detail, but if the date of death is not known, you must state the year from which you want the search to be made, or give some other evidence that might indicate when the person died..."

Hi,
I have really hit a brick wall with this one, I have been searching for about a year and have been unable to find a death for Thomas Everett. I know it was after the 1901 census. Can anybody help please?
Many thanks.

Yes thanks, I managed to find it on Ancestry after I posted my message, although previously I was unable to find it on any of the sites.
Many thanks.
