This database indexes names of persons in conjunction with the various types of probate records they filed. These records include wills, administrations of wills, change of name documents, commitment papers, sales of estates, permissions to marry, guardianships, adoptions, and partitions. In these cases, one name is given in the database. The following are some of the abbreviations used in this set of records. However, as the book did not provide a key to all of its abbreviations, some abbreviations remain cryptic.
Bold letters indicate group or type of document if no names given.
