This man was a soldier and spent much of his life out of the country, he married in South Africa and was also in India. Yesterday I found he had a daughter bapt in Guildford, Surrey in 1896, May Evangeline Anne Cloete Compton, born goodness knows where as I cannot find another trace, so I thought the will worth getting. There's a rather nice house in Lindfield, Sussex called Nash House where his grandparents lived - his grandmother was related to my husbands family.

I've never entered a folio number when I've ordered Wills and they've arrived with no problem. Must say it's a vast improvement on the service we had before!The National Archives, Kew – Research Service Offered

The will popped into my inbox regardless of whatever the correct folio number was, and he named another daughter by her married name - Susan Renee Gay-Roberts which has opened up another avenue of research. She lived in South Africa, married Edmund Lionel Gay-Roberts (1881 Exmouth Devon-1945 Jo'burg S Africa), but died here in 1963 and had a son who died in WW2 and a daughter with initial M born c1914.
