Williams wife is from Warrington ..the children were born Warrington but did not live there they lived and died miles away ..the first of this family to be buried in Warrington was the son Robert he was killed in ww1 and even though his parents were living in London he was buried in Warrington as was but years after his father and mother ..I wonder what made them return his body to Warrington when they lived over 100 miles away ..then when William and Mary died they to were interred in Warrington ..then in 1997 Mary Corbridge was interred in Warrington then 2014 the ashes of the second Mary Corbridge were interred in Warrington ..I cannot find any Prices or Corbridges in Warrington now and am stumped as to the very strong pull Warrington has for this family and who gives permission for the grave to be opened ..a puzzle I cannot seem to solve at all

Unless there has been a transcription error, there doesn't appear to be.

In answer to the availability of Wills

Not all Estates go to Probate. If it does, then it is in the public domain. (there may be a few exceptions such as the Royal Family)

The Government Probate site linked above lists entries in the Probate Calender 1996-2014 and hopes to include all earlier entries.
Currently Ancestry hosts the Probate Calendar entries 1858-1966. There is an on-line black hole for 1967-1995!

Any names, apart from the deceased, are those of the Executors/Administrators and not necessarily beneficiaries. You need a copy of the Will/Letters of Administration to see those.
