	He could have left a Will which didn't go to Probate, in which case, there will be no record of it

	Have you got the death certificate to be sure you have the right one please? you say he died in Buxted in 1903. This is the only death registered but it is the wrong registration district. Buxted is in Uckfield reg district Deaths Mar 1903 (>99%) Longhurst Joshua 63 Tunbridge 2a 473

	if you know the date and place someone died you can apply for a copy of the will - not just a relative's will, anyone's will

	No point in applying for a copy of a Will which isn't in the public domain.....that would be £6.00 down the drain.

Member Since: August 2004 Posts: 44 Send Message	Reggie, Thank you for that advice. Living in NZ as I do I am reluctant to take chances and as you have said waste money.It can be an expensive exercise Kind regards Roger.
