Does the Probate Office have any historical records that would aid a genealogy search?
Many probate records go back to 1848. Cases commenced prior to 1992 are available only on microfilm. Copies made from microfilm are $1.00 per page. To search for information, you will need the person’s first and last name and approximate date of death or date that documents were filed. The State Historical Society has duplicate records for cases filed before 1930 which may be easier to read, retrieve and copy.
