*Between 1483-1858, the [[Court of the Archdeaconry of Buckingham]] proved over 35,000 wills of ordinary people of Buckinghamshire. The [https://archives.buckinghamshire.gov.uk/records/D-A/WE Volumes of wills registered in the court of the Archdeacon of Buckingham, 1483-1858] at the Centre for Buckinghamshire Studies contains an online index.
