I have numerous Wills from Lincolnshire, Northants etc. that were granted in the Peculiar and Exempt Jurisdiction of Groby. I have been trying to find them at affiliate library for most of this year. Can anyone advise should I be concentrating on the Book, Collection or Volume listed as per example:

    Hello @Judith1310,

    Please try searching in this collection: https://www.familysearch.org/en/search/catalog/koha:417193

    The catalog say these are viewable in FamilySearch centers and FamilySearch affiliate libraries.

    FYI: The example you provided with your question for the Widow Neave in West Rasen, 1630, appears in this book: https://www.familysearch.org/library/books/records/item/342607-calendars-of-lincoln-wills-vol-41

    See page page 130 = image 137. "Neave" is the first name on the page and the Widow Neave is the ninth entry under the name "Neave".

    Note that West Rasen is located in Lincolnshire.
