Northamptonshire Wills - how to locate?

+4 votes
239 views

I'm trying to locate a will listed here in the "Calendar of Wills Relating to Northamptonshire & Rutland 1510-1652," p. 120 for one Elizabeth Beby/Beebe/etc. which is supposed to be recorded in the 2nd Series: 

1634, Beby, Eliz : Gt. Addington [Volume?] G. 65. 

There is a second listing for the will here on p. 116 as Book EV, 1634-37, Beby, Elizabeth : Gt. Addington 294.

I've not had a lot of experience with English wills, and am hoping someone can direct me. Thanks in advance for any assistance!

I'd forgotten about their wiki. Thanks for the reminder, David!

You are welcome Bobbie.  The UK National Archive may contain some Northamptonshire wills in the time period you are interested in but they are a pay site I believe.
