Aaagghh! Essex RO say they can get the will to us in a few days. So it will probably arrive here whilst we are in out camper van in Herts!!!

Why didn't I look for it sooner??????????????????

Probably too late to mention this, but Essex RO are supposed to be putting their wills online in about 10 days' time on their new subscription site.

Fair enough! I've sent for it now.

I think there may be others from my tree on there even though they didn't live in Essex. I've never looked at SEAX (except for other people!) until today.
