Wills and Probate Records and Copies
'Probate' is a term commonly used when talking about applying for the right to deal
with a deceased person's affairs. It's sometimes called 'administering the estate'.
This page contains information about what to expect if a loved one's estate is in
probate.
UK GRO Certificates provides a fast and simple service to obtain searches
and copies of Wills and Probate.
If you require a copy of a will for Legal Reasons, Family Disputes, Geneology Research
or simple curiosity? From our web site you can quickly and easily request a search to be made of the Probate Registers and obtain a copy of any Will that has been probated within within England &
Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland from January 1858 up to the present day.
We access to indexes relating to all Probate records for the whole of England &
Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland from 11 January 1858 up to the present day.
You may apply for a copy of any proved Will, as well as a copy of the Grant of Representation.
The Grant will tell you who were the Executors or Administrators (those appointed
to gather in and distribute the estate). It may also tell you the name of the Solicitor
acting for them (if any) and the value of the estate, although usually only in very
broad terms. The financial summary shown on the Grant is the only information relating
to the estate that the Probate record contains. No inventory or estate accounts
are available.
