Wills held at the Derbyshire Records Office with a Clay Cross connection.
The year is the year the Will was proved and not necessary the year of death. The place is the place from where the Will was written, not always where the person died, but most Wills were written in the place where a person died. Michael Spencer has collected these for members of Derbysgen mailing list. If you would like any of the Wills the DRO where they are held will ask an initial fee of £10.35. However, Michael Spencer will charge £4 a Will plus copying and post. Reductions on larger orders. He also offers to check the Will and give details from it to enable you to make an informed choice that it is the Will you want.
His e-mail is Mike
NOTE; The Wills for 1912 and 1916 to 1928 are can not be copied. They can be transcribed however at a slightly higher cost depending on the size of the Will. A full list of Derbyshire Wills can be found on John Palmers Wirksworth site.
