Wiltshire County Council - Wiltshire Archive Catalogue - Wiltshire Wills

Wiltshire County Council - Wiltshire Archive Catalogue - Wiltshire Wills: "The first stage of our on-line catalogue project provides access to a detailed catalogue of wills, 1540-1858, held in the Wiltshire and Swindon Archives (also known as Wiltshire and Swindon Record Office). Access to the catalogue is free of charge.

We are also in the process of gradually adding digital images of probate records (at present about 25% of records have images attached but we hope to increase that substantially during 2009) and in order to increase the speed at which these can be added, from 26 January 2009 we will begin charging to view the digital images on-line. There will continue to be free access to view the digital images on DVD at Wiltshire and Swindon History Centre.

We are grateful to the Heritage Lottery Fund and the other organisations who have made the Wiltshire wills project possible."
