Wills in Archives

Most wills for the inhabitants of Bubwith are in the Borthwick Institute, in York University, with a small number in York Minster Archives. However, with the cataloguing of family, estate, and solicitor collections in archives throughout Yorkshire,  and the availability of these catalogues online on the Access to Archives website, it has been possible to find a few more wills of Bubwith inhabitants, some of which, if they are draft wills in solicitors' collections, may never have been proven and would therefore not show up in the standard indexes to wills.

The following wills have been located so far:
