Find a will in Kent
To find a will for someone who lived in Kent, search the England and Wales probate records. Once probate is granted, the will is public and a copy costs £16. The records are a single national index, so you can search from Canterbury or any of the CT, ME, TN, DA postcode areas online, no local office needed.
Search the records
Enter the person's name and year of death. The national index covers everyone from Kent, whichever registry issued the grant.

Tips for a Kent search
Records are filed under the year the grant was issued, not the year of death (see the grant-year trap), and an exact-name search misses maiden names and spellings. If a search finds nothing, read why a search finds nothing.
