Hello I’m Claire Skinner, Principal Archivist at the Wiltshire and Swindon History Centre. From Monday 25 January the Wiltshire and Swindon Archives are launching a new “pay-per-view” approach to the thousands of digital images on the on-line Wiltshire Wills database. See: www.wiltshirewills.org

Access to the catalogue of over 100,000 individuals' wills and other probate records, from the time of Henry VIII to 1858, will continue to be free of charge. Below is a wonderful example of an informal hand written will, found on the reverse of an old letter.
