Problem

At least 6 that might match on William in Yorkshire either Scarborough or Kingston upon Hull etc

Rule out Scarborough as North Yorks

Thanks GlitterBaby, It was the second William Webster with widow Sarah.

Can I ask, were there any clues as to who was granted probate etc on Arthur Websters estate?
