Having found an ancestors name on the Death Duty index on FMP I went o the National Archives, hoping to be able to download more information.
I think it should be in IR 26, but from there I am completely bewildered. I certainly don't want to pay for something that isn't relevant, but haven't a clue how to work it all out!
If someone else has done this before, could they tell me how to go about it please?
Details from the index are as follows:
Jones John(name of deceased) Chester(Residence) 24 Feb 1892(Date of Death) M Jones(Executer or Administrator) Chester(Registry) 4866(No of affidavit) w(will or admon) 2007(Will or admon folio) tran? 6/1/190?(Succesion or account folio)
Couldn't find a will on the excellent Chester site. Incidentally, he was a solicitor living in Wrexham and I thought he died at home in Wrexham.
Would really appreciate any help with this as "John Joneses" are hard to track down!
