Will notes for Samuel Skelton
Hiw will of 26 April 1792 simply left everything to his wife who was executrix.  It was not proved until 10 March 1807 at York or  7 Dec 1807 at Canterbury, so he survived for 15 years after making his will, remarkable.

She was named in the proving clauses as Mary Skelton.
