It seems more likely that a member of the Leslie family (who wasn't an engraver) was granted probate.
Considering how cheap wills are at the moment, I'd order it. That will give you addresses for all the executors. Also the date the will was written. Interesting that Charles Daniel Parsons was named. You'd think he might have snapped up Elizabeth immediately, rather than wait over a year to marry.
Do you think Robert might have been an apprentice who didn't take to the trade?
