Wills proved in the English Principal Probate Registry


The Principal Probate Registry was established on 12 January 1858, and keeps a copy of every will proved after 1858, as well as copies of letters of administration which relate to the estates of people who died without leaving a will.

Summary information about each of the wills proven by the PPR is published in the National Probate Calendar, published annually. Copies of the calendars, up to 1966, are available in some county record offices and at Ancestry.co.uk. Most of my own research was done from the copies of the calendars at Norwich Record Office.

An index to wills after 1966 is available online at probatesearch.service.gov.uk

I have endeavoured to transcribe all the Gumbleton entries.
