Quick Question? Forgive me for not knowing...

Does a general will need witness' signature notarized?

I can give you two answers to that question <g>

In California notaries are advised not to do wills unless under an attorney's direction, you are advised to refer the signer to an attorney.

When a will is notarized it is usually the witnesses signatures that are notarized to make the will self-proving, which is why the notary cannot be a witness to the will.
