Public Records Office

National Archives lakeMany wills proved between 1384 and 12 January 1858 are stored in the Public Records Office in Kew, Southwest London. Wills proved after January 1858 are held by the Probate Service, but the National Archives has death-duty records dating after 1858. It also has many other genealogical records.

A modern repository-library complex that was opened in 1977, the National Archives has helpful staff, a museum, a book and gift shop, and a cafeteria. It also boasts an attractive pond with at least one resident kingfisher.

National Archives

Many wills are available online via the National Archives website, which also provides a historical background on wills and why they are archived in different locations.
