Just thought I'd mention that Ancestry have recently launched a new collection - London, England, Wills and Probate, 1525-1858.

The collection included wills, inventories and letters of administration and is searchable and browsable (index and images.) Here is a description of the collection.


This database contains wills dating from 1523 to 1857 held by the London Metropolitan Archives. These are original wills only and do not include wills or administrations found in will registers or act books which are accessible on site at the London Metropolitan Archives. These do not include wills proved in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury.

Off to have a look!
