Free Access to National Probate Calendar
Thanks very much for posting this.
I desperately need to switch files between computers, so I haven't been able to get at my Family Historian database. I made a hasty list of people to look for from memory and by looking up families on the 1911 Census website and on FreeCEN, and I did find entries for four people (out of 50) in the National Probate Calendar.
