I can answer my question myself - no, it is not searching by date of death for pre-1993 records, still asks for year of death and then searches for year of probate instead.

I can't get any results for Telford 1894 despite seeing the entry on FMP.

I like "Was the person a solider" on the search results page.

It wasn't computerised pre 1993: you had the books, rather than the microfiche. Probate has always been a leetle bit slower playing catch up than other government departments.
Elizabeth, the page IS there: searching for Telfer will find it. (Goodness knows whether this is an introduced glitch, or an old one)

Thanks!
I'm not getting on well with this. I still have no email to reset my password and it won't let me request another.

It's still telling me to add a Folio Number when there isn't one!
Edit: typing in None seems to work.

It gives an example of how to express a date:
"What was their date of probate? For example, 25 03 2007" I entered 15 03 1884. Then I get the following message: "Error:03 is not a valid month" Edit: I went back to the page and the error message was still showing. However, I pressed the "Add to basket" tab and it worked. There is no rhyme or reason to this. It seems to be a mater of pot luck whether it works or not. Last edited by ElizabethHerts; 07-02-22 at 21:35.
