The 1858 - 1928 lists on these pages have been compiled largely from information researched by Michael Spencer of Matlock and originally circulated to the Derbysgen Discussion Group. His work is reproduced with kind permission. Michael may also be able to help you with copies of wills between these dates if you contact him. Please tell him where you found the information. If you aren't subscribed to Derbysgen you will need to ask him to contact you directly rather than through the discussion group.

My grateful thanks to John for getting me started with the first 117 names and to Kathryn Morano for forwarding the remainder.
