About 1000 probate records (wills, administration, inventories, etc) are referenced. Many relate to people living near Hungerford and
Wantage in Berkshire. Others are from places in Wiltshire, Oxfordshire, Hampshire and London
Due to the inconsistency of spelling in early documents, the name in the list may not correspond exactly to the name as spelled in the document.
A more recognisable spelling may be listed, or both the original and standardized names be listed. For example 'boucher' and 'butcher'
The abstracts are available at the Genuki web site
Note that there are limitations; not all probates for the area are included, a selection has been made based on location
and the possibility of a connection with the Hidden family; in most cases all names have been abstracted, but in a few cases
the abstract is incomplete in this respect; details of bequests etc have been omitted
Select the initial letter of the surname from the following list
