I have been lucky till now and always found Wills with the greatest of ease. But now I'm stuck.
My 3 x GGF James Kenyon was a butcher and his widow Ann is on the 1861 census "Owner of houses".
I feel certain that either she or he, or both of them must have left a Will but I am a bit hampered by not knowing when either of them died!
I have googled a bit aimlessly, but the names are bringing up too many hits with too little identifying info.
I have never actually looked at the National Probate Calendar - does it give any identifiying info on the lists, or is it a suck it and see exercise?
(They lived and died in Lancashire)
