Estate Duty Registers: Difference between revisions

The Family History Library has microfilmed copies of the Estate Duty indexes, wills and administrations.  They can be viewed in the library or through a [[Finding a Family History Center|family history center]].  The registers are grouped into two sections: the Prerogative Court of Canterbury and the country courts.  Unless you are sure of the name of the court, search the indexes for both.
