I came across a reference to a probate record :-

Text: 1598 Severne, John, citizen and haberdasher of London, St. Mary Wolnoth, Lombard Street; Shrawley, Worcs., where I was born 24 Lewyn
Book: 1584 to 1604.
Collection: England: Canterbury - Wills Proved in The Prerogative Court of Canterbury 1584-1604

Can anybody tell me how to get a copy of this record? I am unable to travel to London and wondered if I can order it by post? Any advice will be appreciated, thank you,
Lillian
